Create a lidar integration with the server #24

We need a way of accessing the lidar from the rover. Implement a server that will read the lidar output and allow it to be accessed from the API. The endpoint should be GET /lidar/, and the output should be {angle: distance_to_object}.

1) See dummy_server.js and any *_server.js for examples of how to implement a server. 2) Add a lidar server that feeds random data to make sure it works 3) Connect the physical lidar to the server.
