[vtkusers] Filter source to file

[Amy Squillacote]

Set the output of vtkSphereSource to be the input to 
vtkXMLPolyDataWriter. In c++, this looks something like the following.

vtkSphereSource *sphere = vtkSphereSource::New();
vtkXMLPolyDataWriter *writer = vtkXMLPolyDataWriter::New();
writer->SetInputConnection(sphere->GetOutputPort());
