[vtkusers] vtkTriangleFilter

[David Gobbi]

Hi Stephen,

The vtkTriangleFilter doesn't do the triangulation itself.  Instead,
it delegates the operation to the cell classes.  Each cell type uses a
different triangulation algorithm.  For example, vtkPolygon uses the
ear-cut triangulation algorithm.
