Description

- [ ] enable/disable/toggle `MANUAL_CONTROL` output (for this joystick)
- allows temporary control with a joystick, that can then be disabled when it's no longer in use (e.g. for a manipulator operator once a target has been found)
- [ ] takeover `MANUAL_CONTROL` output (enable for this joystick, disable for any others)
- enables teacher/student interactions, where the teacher can steal control if the student is misbehaving / at risk of a crash

Research direction

Start by locating the joystick action handling and the existing MANUAL_CONTROL output integration. Implement enable, disable, toggle, and takeover behavior for this joystick, then verify that temporary control and teacher/student control transfer work as described.
