Make importing the library fast #87

import resource_retriever is now slow due to the roslib.load_manifest and instantiation of rospkg.RosPack on import time. In this PR,

  1. Removed the roslib.load_manifest as it is not necessary on the latest ROS distribution
  2. Delay instantiation of rospkg.RosPack object to right before the object is used.
