Summary

This PR ports the boat model from Gazebo Classic to Ignition with USV hydrodynamics support via a new USV Dynamics Gazebo plugin. Both the model and plugin are designed to directly replicate the existing SITL functionality in Gazebo Classic.

Thanks! Looks great.

My only concern is whether the license of the model is compatible with this repository.

If the model is licensed under Apache 2.0, as the original vrx repo is licensed as, you need to add additional license files to be compatible with the license. (See https://opensource.stackexchange.com/questions/11556/can-i-use-apache-2-0-licensed-project-inside-my-bsd-3-clause-licensed-project)

Could you clarify the license of the model that you modified? (Not the one in vrx, but the one that you ported)
