Summary0014816: Python calculator doesn't create scalars properly
DescriptionThe python calculator isn't creating per point scalars properly. Here is how to replicate it.

* Local server, Linux, 4.1.
* Open can.exo. All variables on. Apply.
* Just for fun (and clarity), go one timestep forward, and color by ACCL.

Now, our goal is to create a maximum ACCL variable for every point.

* Python Calculator. Expression is max(ACCL). Apply.

Error message is as follows:
ERROR: In ...src/ParaView/4.1.0/ParaView4/VTK/Common/DataModel/vtkDataSet.cxx, line 414
vtkUnstructuredGrid (0x72ccc80): Point array result with 1 components, only has 3 tuples but there are 6724 points

So, what we really want to do is take this maximum, and create a scalar per point. There is a very poor way to do this - as follows:

Expression ((ACCL - ACCL)+1)*max(ACCL)

Either this needs to be fixed, or we need a new function, or a checkbox in the Python calculator, or something.

 This seems to work after the changes to the Python/VTK data processing infrastructure with 4.2. The original expression "max(ACCL)" works as expected -i.e. a new array, "result" is added to the output point-data with the a constant value.

 Tested master, Linux, local server. My numpy is messed up remotely, thus can't test remote.
