This PR adds a new message that allows specifying a linear velocity and a steering position as used in ros-controls/ros2_controllers#1563. I am not entirely happy with the descriptive text here:
Any ideas how to describe it better? A robot does not necessarily have a steering wheel, but often some kind of common element that influences the position of the wheels.
