This PR adds an Rviz tool for drawing a line (called a "located vector" in this repo) on geometry in the 3D view window, similar to the existing Rviz measure tool. The two endpoints of the line are available as a "located vector" via the ROS2 get_located_vector service. This PR also provides a corresponding LocatedVectorOriginGenerator and LocatedVectorDirectionGenerator raster planner components. Both generators call the get_located_vector service provided by the tool to get the origin (start point of the line) and the direction of the line for use with raster planners. Together, these components provide an easier and more intuitive means of controlling the start location and direction of the raster tool path planners.
