ENH: Added new data types. Restructure of composite datasets. vtkMultiGroupDataSet is the new superclass with two subclasses: vtkMultiBlockDataSet and vtkHierarchicalDataSet

BUG: RequestUpdateExtent should be handled specially in composite data pipeline. Piece extents should be used instead of structured extents

BUG:Added vtkHyperOctree to NewDataObject, it should fix all the HyperOctree tests that fail, such as linux static, thanks Berk

ENH:Added vtkHyperOctree, vtkHyperOctreeAlgorithm, vtkHyperOctreCursor and vtkHyperOctreePointsGrabber

ENH:Added GetPointPosition(), GetPointLocation(), GetPointId(), GetNumberOfPoints() and a new version of AddTetras with a signature similar to vtkCell::Clip()

ENH: Merging changes from VTK-5-0 branch to main tree: Changed interface of VTK_LEGACY_BODY and VTK_LEGACY_REPLACED_BODY to accept the project name and version number as a single string.  This will allow them to be used for other projects that want to follow VTK deprecation.

BUG: Didn't quite understand what Sebastien wanted for midpoint range - should work better now! Can set midpoint in full [0,1] range and retreive it as the same value.

BUG: The pipeline information can sometimes be null. Make sure that it is not before passing it to CopyInformationToPipeline

ENH: new functionality to specify sharpness and midpoint between node points in the function. Sharpness of 0 is piecewise linear, sharpness of 1 is piecewise constant. Between these two a modified piecewise hermite function is used. The midpoint is a normalized values [0,1] that indicated where the function crosses the average value of the two bounding nodes.

ENH: Added force option to CopyInformationToPipeline. This allows to overwrite existing pipeline information.

BUG: fixes the issues with using vtkpython for converting tests. Instead a the file configured with the list of classes in each Kit is used to determine the vtk class names while converting tests.

ENH: Add support for building without Tk. Add option VTK_USE_TK which is ON by default. On cocoa disable this. Also, this way you can do off-screen only testing. Add an option to do off screen testing called VTK_USE_OFFSCREEN

BUG: Always remove any exact extent request during REQUEST_UPDATE_EXTENT so that algorithms do not inherit it from other consumers of the same input.  This should fix TestImagePlaneWidget.

BUG: (?): GetActiveCamera would instantiate a camera, and call a ResetCamera. This would have a lot of side effects side effects (like computing the bounds of all props, which will eventually call UpdateInformation() on data objects, etc). It's old, but let's try without. Obviously can be solved by calling ResetCamera manually.
    // this->ResetCamera();

ENH: fix the vtkViewport API. Some methods were changed to deal with win32 mangling issues, but some others were left off (i.e, AddViewProp/RemoveViewProp, but still HasProp, RemoveAllProps, GetProps, etc.). Unify the names (to ...ViewProp...)

ENH: Adding try/catch around the call to a test in VTK C++ test driver executables.  This will produce better output from tests that exit with an exception.  Also replaced vtkSuppressCrtDbgWarning.h with more general vtkTestDriver.h and improved the warning suppression technique.
