fix(ROS2TFClient): Use correct action type for ROS2 tf2_web_republisher

[linglitel]

In the ROS2 version of tf2-web-republisher, the correct Action name should be tf2_web_republisher_interfaces/action/TFSubscription. Fixing this will allow PointCloud2 to be displayed correctly on the web page. This change has been tested on ROS2 Kilted, Ubuntu 24.04 and works for me.

Description

The ROS2TFClient component currently uses a hardcoded action type (tf2_web_republisher_msgs/TFSubscription) This makes the client incompatible with standard ROS 2 tf2_web_republisher, which expect the action type to be tf2_web_republisher_interfaces/action/TFSubscription.
This commit corrects the hardcoded action type to the proper ROS 2 version. As a result, TF-dependent visualizations like PointCloud2 can now be displayed correctly on a web page when using a ROS 2 backend, resolving a critical compatibility issue.
This change has been tested and verified on ROS 2 Kilted with Ubuntu 24.04.

Resolves #948

@EzraBrooks this is a breaking change for ROS1. Time to branch of for ROS1?

[linglitel]

Hi, @MatthijsBurgh,thank you for your feedback,I'd like to think that my change was made exclusively within the ROS2TFClient class, which is intended for ROS 2 environments. The original TFClient for ROS 1 remains untouched.
If I understand wrongly, please correct me,

actionType : 'action_tutorials_interfaces/Fibonacci'

This example doesn't include the action namespace. @EzraBrooks @sea-bass you know what the correct action type format is.
