Description

Currently we have:

network udp → <lidar driver + pointlio> → corrected points, odom, tf

We should rewrite to:

network udp → → raw points, timing, imu → → corrected points, odom, tf

Then we can support mid360 and m20 lidars without copying pointlio config wiring

Research direction

No files, tests, or entry points are named. Start by locating the current combined lidar-driver and PointLIO pipeline and its configuration wiring; the work is done when lidar drivers provide raw points, timing, and IMU data to a separate PointLIO module that produces corrected points, odom, and tf without duplicated wiring.
