Fails on nested topics

[OTL]

Hi, thank you for giving good feedback!
This is because rqt_ez_publisher supports publishing a part of a topic.
It can publish /some/topic's specific member.
If you input /some/topic/data for rqt_ez_publisher, it will create slider to publish /some/topic's "data" member variable (other members will be initialized by zero).
(Float32 has only one member, so this is the same behavior when you input /some/topic)

/some/topic/again is interpreted as "publish again member of /some/topic" by mistake.

Anyway, if it searches nested topic first, it can be fixed. I'll try to fix it.

Ah, I see why that happens. I agree it's worth checking for a nested topic somewhere in find_topic_name, but it's also probably just as easy to change the topics on my side (and fix the freezing + repeated message problem). Let me know which you decide!

I pushed a change to indigo-devel and jade-devel to fix the issue.
Could you try it?

Thanks, this works great!
(FYI, I'm using the sliders for controlling grasps in this ROS package)
