Description of the bug

Planner unable to correctly solve certain instances.

Steps to reproduce the bug

Run the example that I have attached here: https://gist.github.com/arjo129/344d62ee1082919cb4b10f444f4d8ca1. The solver is unable to solve it.

Expected behavior

I expect agent A to wait at its starting location while waiting for B and C to head into the junction to give way to it. Instead, we cannot find a solution.

Research direction

Start by running the attached example from the gist against commit 0748f265521264d55babd9fe76c6efa555441baf on Ubuntu 22.04 with ROS Rolling. Trace the Conflict Based Search solver while reproducing the junction scenario, focusing on why agent A cannot wait for agents B and C. Done means the example produces a valid solution with A waiting at its starting location.
