Remove pointcloud footprint filter #119

It has been deprecated for years, and is the only filter that depends on pcl_ros. Removing it means we don't have to install the 500MB of dependencies that pcl brings in on CI.

If this causes issues for anyone, let me know. I think most cases should be solvable with the non-pointcloud footprint_filter.
