Create a ROS2 node implementing pure pursuit path tracking. Subscribe to /plan (nav_msgs/Path) from Nav2 and /odom. Compute steering commands using lookahead distance (configurable, default 0.5m). Publish geometry_msgs/Twist on /cmd_vel_tracked. Include max speed limiting, goal tolerance (0.1m default), and heading correction at goal. Include tests.
