I propose here some new messages for sending commands to controllers.
This work was motivated by the implementation of the PID controller in ros2_controllers repository.

The message MultiDOFCommand should replace std_msgs/MultiArrayFloat64 currently used with the controllers.
The former is deprecated, and a new message enables to set joint (or in general DOF) names, which makes it more explicit than just a list of values.

Other messages specify a generic status messages, providing flexibility about degrees of freedom.

The PR can also be separated if some messages are not so suitable.

(I apologize in advance if this is the wrong place for this). Would it be possible to backport these messages to the humble branch?

I don't see any problems in backporting them.
