The Daylight Manager plugin for Gazebo simulates the Sun's trajectory based on the time of day and the observer's latitude, providing a realistic and dynamic representation of sunlight. The shadow of object changes depending on the Sun's position, as depicted below

# Features:
1. Sun Trajectory Variation:

- **Time of Day**: The Sun’s altitude changes throughout the day, and users can set a custom time to observe these variations.
- **Latitude**: The observer's latitude influences solar altitude, and users can customize the latitude to adjust the Sun’s path accordingly. Below is an gif of the Sun's trajectory at -80° latitude on Earth. ( Right gif reference : https://andrewmarsh.com/apps/staging/sunpath3d.html )
