Adding the Radar RViz node in the Radar ROS2 Pipeline

[rijin113]

Adding a ROS2 node that allows radar detections to be visualized in RViz.

To run, edit dev_config.local.sh and add ACTIVE_PROFILES="perception vis_tools", and run watod2 build; watod2 up Then, enter the vnc container and start RViz by running rviz2. Open RViz in vnc viewer by connecting to the port. The port can be found using watod2 -lp. Once RViz is setup, enter the radar_rviz container and run ros2 run radar_rviz radar_rviz_node.

Note: One way to test the node is to include a sample radar detection in the main function of the radar_rviz_node.cpp file.

Is the radar visualization hardware intensive? If not, I would rather have it run automatically on startup of the radar node

Confirm that this visualization works on foxglove

• Implemented this on foxglove and it seems to work in the same way with a bunch of random radar points that I made up.
• When the container starts up, the node automatically launches and starts to publish data to topics immediately for foxglove to visualize. Is this what you mean?

Yup, looks good. Rebase and we can merge.
