Migrate to modern Gazebo

[azeey]

As you may know, Gazebo-classic (aka Gazebo11, see Terminology) is no longer being actively developed and will not be available on ROS Jazzy (REP 2000). I noticed that this project still uses Gazebo-classic. Are there any plans to migrate to modern Gazebo (previously known as Ignition)?
