Implemented a sync out count feature in the IMU topics #31

Previously the library as well as the driver did not support the sync_out count in binary messages from group 2. I have updated the library and the driver so that the sync out count from the IMU can be recorded. This is published as a sync_trigger message with its time stamp and the number of count as a data field in the message. The firmware version for the IMU on which we tested is 2.1.0.0 . For this firmware, the IMU outputs the binary messages for sync_out_count in group 2 fields.
