Draft: Label components of non-symmetric tensors.

Fredrik Ekre requested to merge fredrikekre/paraview-2:fe/component-names into master

Vectors of length 6 are already interpreted as symmetric 3x3 matrices and labeled in ParaView as XX, YY, ZZ, XY, YZ, XZ.

This patch adds such labels also for non-symmetric 3x3 matrices (vectors of length 9) using the same order for the first 6 components, and YX, ZY, ZX for the last 3.

It would be good to document this ordering (I didn't find docs for the existing case either), but not sure where. Any pointers would be appreciated!

See https://discourse.paraview.org/t/annotate-non-symmetric-second-order-tensors-with-components-xx-yy/8754 for some more details.
