Manual Aim

[GoogleCodeExporter]

The Manual Aim command allows the shooter to take over rotational control (but 
NOT forward/back and strafe control) of the driver system.  When the Manual Aim 
command is active, the twist value from the shooter joystick will be used to 
rotate the drive robot.  During the Manual Aim command, the driver joystick 
will still be able to manipulate the forward/back and strafe axes of the drive 
system..

The Manual Aim command *also* allows the user to manually adjust the distance 
that the ball will be kicked, by adjusting:

(a) tension
(b) ankle angle

The tension and the ankle angle should probably move together - but this is 
worth a discussion w/James.

Assuming the tension and the ankle angle do move together, the user will adjust 
them via a "slider" with a continuous range.  The value of the joystick slider 
is logically a continuous value along an axis, and can be read as follows:

double throttle_value = stick.getRawAxis(5);
