I first thought that we needed a launch file to open the robot model in rviz. What I realized was that tha launch file just automates things you can do frim CLI. So to start with, I'll create the CLI commands that I need to open the model in rviz. Then I can start looking at things like automating this in a launch file, and setting up an rviz config file.

ac0939aa190064bad8294a20ae7cfa719a7523b3 adds the first command to start rviz without the model loaded.

Once rviz is open, you can now click File > Open Config, and select the new config file that was added here: 9e99d6abbb58f904095bd97ac7755e9de3eed0ff. Since we can now see .urdf files in rviz, I will close this issue.
