Solved Problem
Continuation of #24836.
This PR updates the differential module to the following control structure:

This is done to prepare the rover modules (and the RoverSpecificSetpoints) for access through API and is achieved through the following steps:
Position control now always turns a RoverPositionSetpoint into a RoverVelocitySetpoint which further streamlines the Input/Output flow of the rover specific uORB messages.
RoverDifferential
. Based on the control mode, it will generateRoverSetpoints
and update the necessary controllers . Further, sanity checks are now only performed on parameter or control mode changes.Tests
