Change publication type to sensor_msgs/LaserScan #12

The Keyence is really a laser scanner, not a device that produces point clouds.

Would also allow users to plug the driver into the laser_pipeline packages.

The keyence LJ-V models I've used do enough internal rectification that most of the fields of sensor_msgs/LaserScan would either not be relevant or would have to be back calculated.

I'd say this is a won't fix.
