This pull request introduces significant updates to the robot description and robot bring-up scripts. The primary change involves the generation of .launch.xml files, which are set to replace the existing .launch.py files. This update is motivated by the need for a more standardized and efficient approach to handling launch configurations.
Key Changes:
Updated Scripts: The scripts for robot description and robot bring-up have been modified to generate *.launch.xml files.
Template Modifications: To facilitate this transition, the existing templates have been revised. These updated templates now support the generation of .launch.xml files while maintaining the same functionality as the previous .launch.py files.
Enhanced Functionality: The move to *.launch.xml files is not merely a change in file format but also an enhancement in terms of scalability, readability, and ease of maintenance. This update paves the way for more complex configurations and simplifies the process of managing launch files.
