Describe the bug
A clear and concise description of what the bug is.
The LD19 driver apparently calculates the number of readings in a scan in a non-conformal way and is out of spec with what the ROS2 SLAM Toolbox expects. The maintainer of SLAM toolbox has asked maintainers of LIDAR drivers to fix the calculation on their end. With the current LD19 driver, the SLAM Toolbox will discard around 70% of scans from the LD19 (see graphic below) and is largely unusable. This LD19 driver needs to be updated to always output the same number of readings in every scan and not repeat 0 degrees and 360 degrees. The output range should be [0,360) not [0,360].
To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:
Run this repo's driver on ROS2 Humble
Run the SLAM toolbox on ROS2 Humble (you'll need a a robot model publisher and source of odom-base_link TF to start the toolbox)
the LD19's laserscan topic will provide a solid 10Hz output (USB or serial UART doesn't affect this problem)
the SLAM toolbox discards 60-70% of all scans because the SLAM toolbox is expecting a certain number of readings per scan (which appears to be set at SLAM Toolbox initialization) and the scan length provided by the LD19 driver is consistently off by 1 reading.
The issue is masked to the user because the scan topic looks great and comes in at 10Hz. Also, the SLAM map does get created (because it's still receiving some scans) but it's hugely inefficient due to the toolbox dropping 70% of scans.
Expected behavior
A clear and concise description of what you expected to happen.
These warnings in SLAM Toolbox should be pretty rare and only occur when the LIDAR scan speed doesn't hit its timing, but they're currently alerting on 70% of all scans

Easiest fix is to probably alter the LD19 driver angle min / max so that it conforms to the SLAM Toolbox's format and triggers the GetIs360Laser() check here:
