GPS topic name #44

Rosflight publishes gps/data and rosplane listens to gps. It's not a big deal to remap every time, but it's annoying. Either rosplane should be switched to listen to gps/data, or rosflight should be switched to publish gps. Is there a reason we should call the topic gps/data rather than gps? I'm happy to switch rosplane to gps/data if that is easiest.

I'm pretty sure we settled on gps. It's not really a rosflight thing because rosflight currently doesn't provide gps (that's the real issue) but I'll fix the dirver in rosflight utils.
