Fixes initialize_origin.py diagnostic reporting a warning that the
origin is not automatic when it is.
Adds transform publisher to initialize_origin.py that publishes an
identity transform from the local_xy_frame to an anonymous unused
frame. In doing so, the local_xy_frame will show up
in the /tf tree without any additional nodes running so that
TransformManager can properly transform between /wgs84 and /map.
This change should not interfere with any existing systems.
Expands some of the TransformManager warnings to be more
informative. This is to reduce the impact of common problems that we
run into when setting up a new environment by making it easier to
distinguish the exact nature of the error, as well as provide
suggestions when appropriate.
In particular, this fixes the misleading
"No transfomer from /wgs84 to /map" error and upgrades a warning
about null pointers to an error.

Account for non-zero reference angles when calculating orientations to and from WGS84.
Support arbitrary local_xy reference angles.
* The reference heading has been renamed to reference angle.
* It's not recommended to set a non-zero reference angle.
* A parameter is provided to ignore the reference heading for backwards compatibility.
Fix backwards compatibility issue with swri_yaml_cpp call.

Updates lot_lon_tf_echo to use geometry_msgs/PoseStamped.
See issue #246
Removes dependency on gps_common
The gps_common package was removed in ROS Jade, so a different message
type is needed for the local XY origin message. (Issue #246).
This replaces the gps_common/GPSFix message with a
geometry_msgs/PoseStamped message. The latitude is stored in
pose.position.y, the longitude is stored in pose.position.x, and the
altitude is stored in pose.position.z. As before, the local xy frame is
fixed in rotation such that the Z axis points away from the center of
the Earth and the Y axis points north. However, the choice of
geometry_msgs/PoseStamped allows for headings to be added in the future.
Refactors initialize origin and fixes a bug.
