• Merge pull request #10 from hatchbed/fix-build-type Fix ROS 1 build
• Fix ROS 1 build catkin_make was refusing to build this package because it couldn't identify the build type, so this explicitly sets the build_type to catkin when in a ROS 1 environment. Also, there was a header that was defining some values that should only be set in ROS 2, and the #if definition around it was accidentally checking if the ROS version was >0 rather than >1, so this also fixes that.

• Update README.md fixes #7
• Fix dynamic reconfig permissions The .cfg files used to provide dynamic reconfigure support in ROS 1 are executable Python files, and so they need to have the executable bit set in order to work properly. Fixes #1
• Update README.md
• Consolidate ROS 1 & ROS 2 package manifests Previously, this package had separate package manifest files for ROS 1 and ROS 2, and it was necessary to run a script after cloning the repository to name the correct one package.xml. This consolidates both of them into a single package.xml file that works with both ROS 1 and ROS 2, so the package can now be cloned and built inside a standard colcon workspace without needing to run any additional scripts. It also makes a few tweaks to other files to ensure compatibility. This has been tested on ROS Noetic and ROS Foxy in Ubuntu 20.04.
