Added View Control Plugin for HectorViewController Interaction. Allows to control the rviz camera perspective with your gamepad.

Features:

  • in driving mode camera control: Rotate the camera perspective using gamepad input.
  • Dedicated view_control configuration:
    - Rotate, translate, and zoom the current view using the gamepad axes
    • Tracking control: Press 'B' to toggle tracking of a target frame (configurable via parameter).
    • 2D mode toggle: Press 'Y' to switch between 3D and 2D view modes.

Depends on https://github.com/tu-darmstadt-ros-pkg/hector_rviz_plugins/compare/feature/gamepad_view_controller?expand=1
