Upgrading PathFilter, StreakLine with backward compatibility

Yohann Bearzi (Kitware) requested to merge yohann.bearzi/paraview:path-filter-PV into master

ParticleTracer, ParticlePath, and StreakLine are having their API peeled of SetTerminationTime and SetStartTime as part of an upgrade allowing better support for Catalyst runs. On ParaView 5.13 and beyond, the property TerminationTime will do nothing. For older scripts, backward compatibility is provided by subclassing the filters and subsampling the input time steps.

ParticleTracer used to not use vtkParticlePath as a backend, but a filter in VTKExtensions: vtkInSituPParticlePath as the other filter was dysfunctional. It has been fixed so we can get rid of the filter formally used by ParaView.
