Having never made a paraview filter but made hundreds of
CMakeLists.txt files it looks to me this is about organizing the code.
In my projects I have a CMakeLists.txt file for every subdirectory in
the source code. You do not have to do this that way its a matter of
preference and in my opinion makes the build system more manageable.
