Python docstring for message documentation

Confronta i commenti del sorgente in statistics_msgs/msg/MetricsMessage.msg con la classe generata statistics_msgs.msg._metrics_message mostrata nella issue. Inizia individuando il percorso di generazione Python di rosidl che produce questa classe, quindi identifica i test di generazione esistenti. Il lavoro è completato quando la documentazione del messaggio e dei suoi campi proveniente dal sorgente appare nelle docstrings Python corrispondenti ed è coperta dai test.

Steps to reproduce issue

When looking at a message class documentation in Python, the message comments don't really show making it more complicated to understand the message.

For example take the statistics_msgs/MetricsMessage, the source file has lots of good documentation for the message itself as well as for each of the fields contained in the message.
When looking at the python documentation for the message, we see:

All of this without any of the message creator help data.

Expected behavior

Instead, we could build in the documentation comments from the original message documentation into the python class docstring making it better for developers to access the documentation.
A potential outcome for this message type:

 Help on class MetricsMessage in module statistics_msgs.msg._metrics_message:

class MetricsMessage(builtins.object)
 |  MetricsMessage(**kwargs)
 |  
 |  Message class 'MetricsMessage'.
 |  
 |  A generic metrics message providing statistics for measurements from different sources. For example,
 |  
 |  measure a system's CPU % for a given window yields the following data points over a window of time:
 |    - average cpu %
 |    - std deviation
 |    - min
 |    - max
 |    - sample count
 | 
 |  These are all represented as different 'StatisticDataPoint's.
 |  
 |  Fields:
 |    measurement_source_name (string): Name metric measurement source, e.g., node, topic, or process name
 |    metrics_source (string): Name of the metric being measured, e.g. cpu_percentage, free_memory_mb, message_age, etc.
 |    unit (string): Unit of measure of the metric, e.g. percent, mb, seconds, etc.
 |    window_start (builtin_interfaces/Time): Measurement window start time
 |    window_stop (builtin_interfaces/Time): Measurement window end time
 |    statistics (sequence<statistics_msgs/StatisticDataPoint>): A list of statistics data point, defined in StatisticDataPoint.msg
 |  
 |  Methods defined here:
 |  
 |  __eq__(self, other)
 |      Return self==value.
 |  
 |  __init__(self, **kwargs)
 |      Initialize self.  See help(type(self)) for accurate signature.
