Collection of how to spawn existing models.

To spawn a collection of the DAVE models in the same Gazebo world, run

roslaunch dave_robot_launch uuv_collection.launch paused:=true

Note that the functionality (closed-loop control, teleoperation, etc.) is not setup in this collective example, but is illustrated for each vessel in the examples below.
