[vtkusers] Use of vtkCellArray's InsertNextCell method from java

[gbiv]

Hi Phil,
The problem is that cells are implicitly defined in StructuredGrids, ie each
cell's topology is defined only by the  x/y/z spacing and the overall bounds
of the dataset. Therefore the InsertNextCell method isn't needed. Only
UnstructuredGrids implement the InsertNextCell method.
(See example for structured grids)

If you are really only wanting to create a cube try using vtkCubeSource or
if you want 8 individual planes try vtkPlaneSource.
