RViz interface: virtual occlusions & pointing buttons #32

@mateiciocarlie @jon-weisz

Adds RViz part of #30 and a virtual "invisible robot" that occludes interactive markers etc. in the first-person view. Also, there are now two pr2_marker_control nodes, the old one for the web interface and a new one that only overlays transparent controls over the robot model in rviz.

There will be three new buttons which simply publish a PointStamped when you click on something, their backend functionality still needs to be connected.

Requires some unmerged API changes to RViz core, so use together with https://github.com/dgossow/rviz/tree/all_merged

Do you know if Dave has already released RViz with the changes, or is planning to do it in the very near future?

Dave asked me to take care of hooking up the buttons to the actual functionality but I won't be able to do it until Saturday. On Feb 4, 2013 4:14 PM, "Matei Ciocarlie" notifications@github.com wrote:

'Dave' usually refers to Dave Hershberger.

Will talk to him about my pull request and will make sure to do a release this week.
