Use MagneticField message instead of just vector3 #4

I change the magnetics output to MagneticField message from sensor_msgs. I guess it should be more suitable to fit other already existing tools ... if there are any.

Thanks. This is something I was going to get to... eventually. I really only use magnetic field for to see if I'm getting magnetic interference (from motors)... and for that, vector3 works just fine. You're right though, since there's a msg specifically for magnetic field, we should use it.
