[vtkusers] VTKParametricEllipsoid performance

[Jose Ignacio Prieto]

My point is that I am setting a cutting plane for the ellipsoid inside the
parametric equation. I am leaving point x,y,z =0 after the plane, also with
derivatives DU and DV. So in the borders it doesn't look nice with a
resolution of 64 points. I attach a pic to let you get an idea. Thanks
