bump::patch

This suppose to be just update of panther_bringup README, but I also added info in main README about providing custom robot description as it is kind of related to panther_bringup launch arguments. Plus small fix in driver docs.
Some of information (manager behavior tree) are ahead of time - they are supposed to be merged in close future, IMO there is no point in writing info and correcting it two weeks later.

Complicated, maybe creating a list of sub-arguments would be better.

Suggested change
- `robot_description` [*string*]: robot description in URDF format, by default parsed from **$(find panther_description)/urdf/panther.urdf.xacro**, with `wheel_config_path` specified by `wheel_config_file` launch argument and imu position parsed using `PANTHER_IMU_LOCALIZATION_X/Y/Z` and `PANTHER_IMU_ORIENTATION_R/P/Y` evironmental variables.
- `robot_description` [*string*]: robot description in URDF format, parsed by default from **$(find panther_description)/urdf/panther.urdf.xacro**. Urdf itself contains its own arguments that are responsible for wheel selection and imu position.
- `wheel_config_path` reads the value of the `wheel_config_file` parameter
- changing the imu position is done by setting the environment variables `PANTHER_IMU_LOCALIZATION_X/Y/Z` and `PANTHER_IMU_ORIENTATION_R/P/Y`.
