Development of a new PVTU writer to reduce the number of files

Yes, you are completely right @cory.quammen thank you very much!

However, the increase of memory footprint in vtkAggregateDataSetFilter could be avoided if VTK writers would allow more than one processor to write in a same VTU file avoiding data gathering of neighbor processors, as it is done in the library:

A lot of simulation codes would benefit of a new parallel PVTU writer with those specifications…
