[vtkusers] Boolean Operations on PolyData

I think there are none in VTK (correct me). GTS library has them, but
they do not always work right (it's a very difficult task in general).
What you could do in VTK is to compute signed distance function first
and then perform boolean operations on them, and then convert back to
surfaces.
