EasyNav Kobuki Playground: description

The model of the Kobuki (Turtlebot 2) used by the EasyNav playgrounds: URDF and meshes, with a laser and an optional RGBD camera. It depends neither on Gazebo nor on EasyNav: easynav_playground_kobuki_worlds simulates it, and easynav_playground_kobuki navigates with it.
