UR 8 Long support

[cjue]

The new UR8 Long has been released:
https://www.universal-robots.com/products/ur8-long/

Is someone already working to include it in this package?

Same issue for the ROS2 package:
UniversalRobots/Universal_Robots_ROS2_Description#318

UR8 Long support will land in ROS 2 PRs today or tomorrow. For ROS 1 we haven't planned it, so far.

Great 👍

We might create a ROS 1 PR based on the ROS 2 version.

For ROS 1 we haven't planned it, so far.

given how many people/organisations still use Noetic (based on download statistics and the popularity of things like Canonical ESM), I'd expect support for ROS 1 would be very much appreciated.

I'm happy to say that we will add support for UR8 Long for ROS noetic, as well.
