[vtkusers] VTKPolyData Boolean Operators

[Bill Lorensen]

Cory,

To be consistent with other polydata filters, the class
vtkPolyDataBooleanOperationFilter should be named
vtkBooleanOperationPolyDataFilter

The naming convention goes from general to specific as we read from right to
left.

For example:
vtkSmoothPolyDataFilter
vtkWindowedSincPolyDataFilter
vtkTransformPolyDataFilter

Unfortunately, some filters leave off Filter:
vtkShrinkPolyData and many others.

Things like this can be taken care of now or when we put this under gerrit
for review.

Bill
