[vtkusers] Change position of text in vtkImagePlaneWidget

[DL I]

Hi Jothy

When the widget it first instantiate it calls GenerateText() and sets its
default position to the lower left corner of the renderer:
  vtkCoordinate* coord = this->TextActor->GetPositionCoordinate();
  coord->SetCoordinateSystemToNormalizedViewport();
  coord->SetValue(.01, .01);

so after instantiating the widget, you could do once:
- search the renderer's props for a vtkTextActor, since there is no API to
get it directly from the widget
- then get the position coordinate and change its value as shown above or
per Cory's comments in this thread
