大疆livox定制的格式CustomMsg格式转换pointcloud2

官方livox_driver驱动livox雷达发出的点云topic有两种，一种是大疆览沃定制的格式CustomMsg格式，另一种是将CustomMsg格式
转换过的pointcloud2格式，参见
Livox雷达驱动程序发布点云格式CustomMsg、PointCloud2、pcl::PointXYZI、pcl::PointXYZINormal解析
现在将转换这部分的代码提取出来，方便 随时使用

1. 创建ros功能包

				mkdir -p livox_repub/src
				cd livox_repub/src
				catkin_init_workspace 
				cd ..
				catkin_make

2. livox_repub.cpp

				cd src
				mkdir livox_repub
				cd livox_repub

vi package.xml

launch文件：

vi livox_repub.launch

<launch>

  <node pkg="livox_repub" type="livox_repub" name="livox_repub" output="screen" >
  <remap from="/livox/lidar" to="/livox/lidar" />
  </node>

</launch>

3. 编译运行

				cd ../../
				catkin_make
				source devel/setup.bash 
				roslaunch livox_repub livox_repub.launch

注意：这个包是要先订阅CustomMsg的话题/livox/lidar，然后发布PointCloud2格式的"/livox_pcl0"话题，所以不论是实时驱动livox-driver还是通过bag包发布/livox/lidar，都需要确保有/livox/lidar才能有转换结果
转换后的PointCloud2点云可以通过rviz显示，终端输

rviz

Fixed Frame设置为livox，点云设置为/livox_pcl0
