[vtkusers] Compiling from source 6.0.0 but reproducible with 6.1.0

[Robert Maynard]

VTK's by default tries to build a built-in version of libxml2 and
doesn't link to the system version. The question that needs solving is
why isn't vtk building vtklibxml2.

What is the state of VTK_USE_SYSTEM_LIBXML2 in your CMakeCache.txt?
