[vtkusers] Building VTK without OpenGL

[Ken Martin]

I added some support for fixing the None backend work.  It is still a bit
twitchy as you can turn on some modules that require graphics even if the
None backend was selected. But a fresh build with None seems to work
including with Python and tests passed for me. Without Rendering there are
still a couple hundred tests :-)  If you get a chance to setup a None
dashboard with python Ben that would be great.

Thanks
Ken

Is a dashboard which just builds with the None backend sufficient? Are
there any tests that would still run that are meaningful in only None mode
(looking for a way to save buildbot time here :) ).

If anyone makes an MR where a None backend works, I'll add a builder for
it.
