Add laser_retro support

[doisyg]

As discussed here gazebosim/gz-rendering#181, this is the last PR needed for complete laser_retro support

[chapulina]

Thanks, this works for me! We just need an ign-rendering3 release before merging. Would it be possible to add an example world that exercises the feature? Just something simple with a box that has custom laser_retro values and a sensor that captures it, and some instructions up top for the user to check the data? Thanks!

Sure, maybe an example in ros_ign_gazebo_demos https:/ignitionrobotics/ros_ign/tree/ros2/ros_ign_gazebo_demos, what do you think ?

Yeah that works too! If adding one to this repository under examples/worlds isn't too much trouble, that's also a good place, since we've been putting many demos there.

Done, hope it helps

Thanks, this looks good to me! We've made an ign-rendering release.

Do you mind merging ign-gazebo3 into your branch so that the branch is up-to-date and CI is retriggered? It looks like I can't push to your branch.

Thanks!

Ouch, still missing an SDFormat release. I'm on it.

[chapulina]

@osrf-jenkins run tests please

Hi @chapulina, would it be possible to do a release of ignition-gazebo3 in order to enjoy this PR from the standard binary installation? Thx!

Sure, I'll see if I can get #534 in tomorrow and then trigger a release 👍
