Ros2 update

[Dhruti1994]

Please , if possible update the whole library for ROS2 as well.

I'm on it. But because of my OS, will probably be an update for foxy (from there, should be easier to update to humble)

Hi @AlfreddGco, do you plan to issue a pr for the ros2 version?

[AlfreddGco]

Had forgotten about it since my team decided to use ROS1 for the project, but I already have most of the work done. Will try to make a PR by January 4th (it's on my calendar now)

For some reason my reminder didn't worked and sent me a notification but I just made the repository public while I make a PR.

There's also a very useful utility in the codebase in which you can emulate a serial connection without the need of hardware. Honestly the version for ROS2 is not totally tested and neither probably well built but I think that there's at least a lot of work already done.

As long as I remember the main branch is for foxy and the humble branch is (obviously) for humble.

Here's the link to the adapted repo: https://github.com/AlfreddGco/sonnybot-agv/tree/main/src/hoverboard-driver

PS: I wouldn't be bothered if someone else does the PR using the code that I changed before I manage to do submit it.

For those of you looking for a ROS2 version. I build one which runs fine on ROS2 Humble. Have a look at the humble branch https://github.com/hoverboard-robotics/hoverboard-driver/tree/humble

What a great news! I have been waiting for this moment for quite a long time. All my previous projects utilized ROS1 (Noetic Ninjemys) and I really missed having a driver for ROS2. This opens the door for new explorations and many new possibilities (DDS, RFM, QoS) :) Thank you on behalf of myself and my robots :)
