Add docker integration

Hey @frietz58 I just saw your awesome fork (https://github.com/frietz58/pepper_virtual). I was meant to Dockerize it but had a bunch of issues and never got to finish it.

I'd like to help you/collaborate on improving it. An easy thing that can be done to improve it is:

Push a built docker image to DockerHub (or somewhere else). This way people can run the simulation with just pulling it and running. It also can avoid the looong wait of the first time of opening Gazebo where it downloads some models.

You also mention:
I found that adding trying th add any of the camera topics to RVIZ crashes the gazebo simulation... However, other topics work fine.
I've never seen this happen. But I suspect it will have to do with the GPU, and I suspect further that if doing --privileged on the docker run command it may work.

P.S.: I wanted to keep the conversation public that's why I enabled Issues in my repo and created it. Given I won't be able to maintain this project, you may want to enable Issues in your fork instead.

How not to drift /odom frame

I am having problems simulating this using a mapping algorithm. Since /odom frame drifts the map is done wrong, how can I stop /odom from drifting?
