Add ros2_control switch and enable mesh loadingin Gazebo #16

Closed MarqRazz closed 1 year ago

MarqRazz commented 1 year ago

To enable the gripper to work with robots like the Kinova Gen3 we need a switch for the user to decide if they want the ros2_control xacro included. This is because the Gen3 robot communicates with the gripper directly by itself and the hardware_interface is only needed when simulating.

This PR also updates the mesh loading to use $(find over the ROS specific package:// so that the mesh files can be found by Gazebo.
