Detailed Description

Utilize pqMetaDataPropertyWidget when you need to update the metadata information of a vtkSMSourceProxy.

For example, The list of arrays in array selection views may need to be refreshed when data access properties on the reader are modified.

How to use? Group all properties that could affect the metadata inside a property group, then, set this widget as the panel_widget.

Example:

*   <PropertyGroup name="DatabaseProperties", panel_widget="MetadataPropertyWidget">
*     <Property name="Foo"/>
*     <Property name="Bar"/>
*     <Property name="VeryInterestingProperty"/>
*   </PropertyGroup>
* 

Under the hood, it uses pqProxyWidget::createPropertyWidget` to auto generate pq[Int,Double,String]VectorPropertyWidget instances for simple properties - (Int, Double, String)VectorProperty.

When any of those properties are modified, from GUI or Python or wherever, the unchecked values are pushed to the source proxy's vtk object. After that, UpdatePipelineInformation() is invoked on the source proxy. This enables it to reload the information based on the new property values.
