Using Cyclone DDS caused bugs for several teams that made their ROS2 environment unusable (e.g. ros2 CLI tools hanging when executed, and nodes and topics not being discovered).

Moreover, Fast DDS is the default DDS for ROS2 Jazzy, and I don't think there is a valid argument for using Cyclone DDS as the ROS middleware.

N.B. We WILL NOT require or recommend updating the image currently used on the Raspberry Pis and the lab PCs for A25. Instead, a fix that achieves the same results as the proposed changes WILL be transmitted to the students (actually, the fix has already been sent in a post on Teams' A25-GRO-S5R-APP3's General channel, but SHOULD be replicated in the other classes' teams).

Additionally, this PR SHOULD NOT be merged until after #44 has been merged into the main branch.
