Summary0013749: Not obvious why volume rendering doesn't work remote server
DescriptionThere is a confusion why remote server, volume rendering sometimes doesn't work. This is because remote server, local rendering doesn't volume render. If the dataset is small enough that ParaView tries to local render, it is just displayed as outline mode.

Example: remote server, 3.98.0, Linux. Wavelet. Volume render.

I think my preferred solution would be to force remote rendering for volume rendering. Since if the dataset size is large enough we automatically do this anyway, the user's setup should be able to handle this case correctly.

Thoughts?

 commit c14d006f2df29551bc01a31d6c385ab10190c919

    BUG 0013749: Auto-detect remote-rendering requirements.
    
    Added support to vtkPVRenderView to enable representations to request
    either remote or local rendering. vtkImageVolumeRepresentation uses this
    new mechanism to tell the view that volume rendering requires remote
    rendering. Now, when in client-server (or distributed) mode, a volume
    rendering an image data, ParaView will automatically switch to remote
    rendering, if possible. When not possible, we also display an error
    message.
    
    Also updated ImageVolumeRendering test to no longer manually force
    remote-rendering.

    Fix lost string termination character.
    
    The code to send server-side messages to client was losing the string
    termination character resulting in the client showing trailing garbage.
    Fixed that.

    Fix detection of X.
    
    ParaView was using obsolete PARAVIEW_USE_X flag. That flag was removed
    during modularization changes. Fixed to use the proper VTK_USE_X flag to
    check if we should use X API.
    
    This now fixes the detection of a valid display on the server nodes.
