This PR adds a system which exports occupancy grids. Currently its a work in progress. The BFS algorithm seems to not identify when there cannot be any progress made. Signed-off-by: Arjo Chakravarty <arjoc@intrinsic.ai>

The overall feature looks great! I have some concerns about where the computation is being done. In most of our plugins, we have the pattern where we only do trivail things in message callbacks and defer expensive computation to Pre/PostUpdate calls. There also a number of style issues.

Since we are accessing the occupancy grid on the main simulation loop only now, we dont need a mutex to protect it. Signed-off-by: Arjo Chakravarty <arjoc@intrinsic.ai>

Summary
Depends on: gazebosim/gz-math#685
This PR adds a system which exports occupancy grids. Currently its a work in progress. The BFS algorithm takes a fair deal of time to converge, hence writing a unit test may not make sense. We should also make a nice UI for it.
Test it
Follow the instructions in the example sdf.
The occupancy grid will be published as an image on the /scan_image topic.
To start the exploration, run the following command in a new terminal:
