PCL文件格式转换PCD转PNG（使用某个字段）

可以通过PointCloudImageExtractorFromNormalField，PointCloudImageExtractorFromRGBField，PointCloudImageExtractorFromLabelField，PointCloudImageExtractorFromZField，PointCloudImageExtractorFromCurvatureField，PointCloudImageExtractorFromIntensityField
将相应的字段转换成颜色信息，直接可以得到pcl::PCLImage格式的数据。可以通过setColorMode设置颜色模式，
COLORS_MONO
COLORS_RGB_RANDOM
COLORS_RGB_GLASBEY
通过savePNGFile直接将pcl::PCLImage格式的数据保存。
代码如下：

#include <boost/lexical_cast.hpp>

#include <pcl/console/time.h>
#include <pcl/console/print.h>
#include <pcl/console/parse.h>
#include <pcl/io/pcd_io.h>
#include <pcl/io/png_io.h>
#include <pcl/conversions.h>
