[vtkusers] Can I build VTK w/o Cosmo?

Cosmo is cosmology research code from LANL. The library itself is in
ThirdParty/Cosmo (thus not vtk prefixed) and Filters/Cosmo contains the
reader and filter that use that library. A quick glance makes me think that
in VTK 5 you have to hack the CMakeLists files to turn it off. In VTK 6 it
is a non-default module that you have to turn on to enable.
