[vtkusers] vtkInteractorStyleRubberBandPick andwtkOpenGLRenderWindow::SetRGBACharPixelData problem

[Alex Malyushytskyy]

Actually I take it back.
vtkInteractorStyleRubberBandZoom does work. I just had background
color set so line was mostly invisible.
I am going now to override all other styles I need and draw rectangle
the same way vtkInteractorStyleRubberBandZoom does.
Actually I am surprised RedrawRubberBand is not virtual and does not
belong to vtkInteractorStyle.
Also it seems having different RedrawRubberBand implementation does
not make a lot of sense.

Regards,
   Alex.
