[vtkusers] vtkPolyData::ReplaceLinkedCell does not seem to work

[Mengda Wu]

Tried to debug a little bit. It seems that ReplaceLinkedCell or ReplaceCell can
only replace with the same number points.
It does not or cannot change the size of one cell in the vtkCellArray due
to the definition of vtkCellArray.
