Refactor launch files to make sense when running on a tugboat, Jankboat One, or the simulator #9

Closed HALtheWise closed 7 years ago

Currently, the launch files we have are bringup.launch and bringup_minimal.launch. These aren't very descriptive names, and don't make it clear what to run if (for example) testing RC code on top of a simulated robot. We should figure out what different layers or configurations of launch files we want to exist, and then replace the current mess with that better systems.

This seems to have been resolved. There is probably still some work to be done with documenting stuff, but that can come as we test more.
