Subject: [PATCH] Drop the leading slashes from the rover odometry frame names
 (#45).

ROS 2 tf2 frame ids must not start with a slash. The demos' odom_tf_publisher
nodes copy the frame names from the odometry message into /tf, so the transform
went out as /odom -> /base_footprint and only resolved because tf2 strips the
slashes on the way in. Both the lunar pole and curiosity models are changed;
nothing consumes the slashed names on purpose.
