Change pc2 time stamp to match lidar time stamp

[adelmhi]

Issue description

the pc2_msg published with the topic /cloud_in takes as time stamp the rclcpp::Node::now() function. Since the point cloud is supposed to combine and replicate lidar signal, it would make more sens to use the timestamp of the laser1_ message.

Possible fix

pc2_msg_->header.stamp = now();

CHange this line to pc2_msg_->header.stamp = laser1_->header.stamp;

Hi @KenStonck ,

Unfortunately I still have not got any time to test the updated code. I have not got any access to my current hardware right now. Will let you know once I got chance to test it with a real hardware before publishing an update.
