Automatic Plot for Component Switch

Under single frame mode, the program plots the current frame automatically in the
following situations:
1. When the user switches to a different plot method: For example, from deform to
contour;
2. When the user switches to a different component: For example, from a contour
component to another contour component;
3. When the user turns the plot option on/off: For example Element Result is turned on/
off.

Now included in the current eta/Post application path when searching user

The current opened model directory
The system home directory
The eta/Post install directory(found from environment variable ETAPOST_PATH).

The configuration file is only put together with eta/Post and the environment
If ETAPOST_PATH is not set, the configuration file can still be found and used.
