Discrepancy in battery current sign between gz and ROS 2 for discharging state

[Tacha-S]

Environment

• OS Version: Ubuntu 24.04
• binary build version: 8.6.0

When using a ROS 2 bridge to convert battery state from gz to sensor_msgs/BatteryState in ROS 2,
sensor_msgs/BatteryState expects the current to have a negative value during discharge.
However, the gz-sim-linearbatteryplugin-system plugin does not behave this way.
Is it correct for the current in the gz message to remain positive even during discharge?

Description

• Expected behavior:

current value is negative value.

• Actual behavior:

current value is positive value.
