Create a desktop image #4

Description

@robwoolley

We should create a desktop image for developers that are looking for a single fully functional image to easily get started. It should appeal to developers familiar with the Linux desktop.

The image should have a specified list of supported formats and target machines. This may include Live USB images, container images, virtual machine images, or SD card images. The machine types may include Raspberry Pi 4B, Raspberry Pi 5, QEMU x86-64.

The image should include desktop-full and necessary build tools like colcon. It may also include popular subsystems like ros2_control, navigation2, and MoveIt2.

It must on the latest LTS release combination: Yocto Wrynose with ROS Lyrical. It may be used for other combinations. It should support Qt6 with Wayland, but may use X11 if we encounter compatibility issues with graphics drivers.

Here is some previous work done in meta-ros related to this:
