Summary: Player: Introduce flip option to hokuyo_aist.

Initial Comment:
In our robot, the laser sensor is mounted upside down, so we are getting the readings in reverse order. This patch introduces a new "flip" configuration option to the hokuyo_aist driver. When set to true, it flips the order of ranger readings to compensate for that.
It does not change the angles in any way, so for non-symmetric ranges it may not yield the result one expects; it just reverses the order of readings.

Any comments on the patch are welcome. I'm not even sure if this should be a capability of the driver, maybe a generic ranger_flip driver would be more appropriate, but it was the easiest solution for me and maybe it helps somebody else.
