[vtkusers] same camera on different viewpoints

[Mark Wyszomierski]

Luca, I had tried that myself at one point:

     ren2->SetActiveCamera(ren1->GetActiveCamera());

but would get random crashes, has it been ok for you? I eventually had
to manually copy over camera parameters between the two cameras
instead to get the same effect.

I think what Sicilia wants is to have the same interaction propagated
to all renderers (since the cameras may be setup in different
locations). This probably isn't a typical thing to do, normally you
want the camera location copied throughout all renderers instead. I
was looking into this but couldn't figure out myself how to Invoke()
the same interaction on another renderer. We can listen on Interaction
events on the render window's interactor, but not quite sure how to
propagate it to the other renderers.
