[vtkusers] Coloring of Iso-Surfaces (vtkContourFilter)

I forgot to say that binding a LUT to a mapper might not be enough, you have
to set the Scalar range to the mapper as well.
But at least, the LUT is properly set.

scalarIsoSurfaceMapper->SetScalarRange(
sGridPointData->GetOutput()->GetScalarRange()
);

Hope I did not forget something else... ;-)
