Summary0003127: Easy sideset normals
DescriptionPlease add a button to show the sideset normals. Right now you have to construct the following pipeline in ParaView

exodus(select just the sidesets) -> extract surface -> polydata normals -> glyph

Too complicated, many users want to check boundary conditions, which include the orientation of their sidesets. So this should be a one button functionality.

This sounds like a good candidate for a custom filter.

Create a custom filter that does extract surface -> polydata normals -> glyph and include it as an example in paraview source. Maybe write a test with it too?

Create a custom filter and compile it in.

Added new "Normal Glyphs" filter that adds a new custom filter for side set
normals. Fixes BUG 0003127.

I am not sure what properties need to be exposed (or what to call this filter). I am open to suggestions.

Nice. I wouldn't change a thing.

Tested client/server.
