[vtkusers] Detect where the VTK libraries are installed from within python

[Alexander Pletzer]

Hi VTK'ians,

I have python code that calls VTK C++ code. To compile the C++ code with
setup.py I need to know where the VTK libraries are installed. This
information is usually collected by cmake when using find_package(VTK) and
stored in the VTK_LIBRARIES, VTK_INCLUDES_DIRS and VTK_RUNTIME_LIBRARY_DIRS
variables.

Does anyone know whether it is possible to extract VTK_LIBRARIES,
VTK_INCLUDES_DIRS and VTK_RUNTIME_LIBRARY_DIRS or some equivalent
information from the python vtk module?

Thanks in advance!
