Description

This PR adds support for the SET_PTP_LOCK_OFFSET and GET_PTP_LOCK_OFFSET PTC commands.
In the inquiry linked above, it was observed that not explicitly setting PTP lock offset sometimes causes the value to reset to 1 us on at least OT128. While this is likely a sensor firmware bug, being able to set this offset from within Nebula should improve usability, and should eliminate the need to use Hesai's web interface or desktop GUI.

Here is a demo of OT128:

ptp-lock-offset.mp4

It has been confirmed that by restarting Nebula, for OT128, the setting can revert to the old value (Hesai firmware bug or PTC documentation inaccurate). With this PR, it is immediately set to the desired value again.

For the other sensors tested that support th command, this bug was not observed. The value persisted over Nebula restarts.

Restricting this feature to only affect OT128 and QT128, as other sensors have been found to not support it (maybe a firmware update would change that).

Sadly, the current architecture for sensor configurations in Nebula forces us to add the parameter to ALL Hesai sensors, even if without any effect.
