Pull request overview
Updates the GitHub Actions Linux CI/prebuild workflows to install ROS 2 Lyrical via the official apt/deb repository instead of a date-stamped beta tarball, reducing manual maintenance and aligning with upstream installation guidance.
Changes:
- Switch Lyrical installation in Linux x64/arm64 prebuild workflows from tarball extraction to
apt-get install ros-lyrical-desktop. - Switch Lyrical installation in Linux x64/arm64 build-and-test workflows to apt/deb, including
ros-lyrical-test-msgswhere tests require it. - Remove Lyrical-specific tarball URL matrix entries and the associated extract/rosdep steps.

Per the official Lyrical install guide (https://docs.ros.org/en/lyrical/Installation/Ubuntu-Install-Debs.html), ROS 2 Lyrical is now available as Debian packages on Ubuntu 26.04. Switch all four Linux workflows to
apt-get install -y ros-lyrical-desktopand drop the date-stamped beta tarball that had to be hand-refreshed every time upstream produced a new snapshot. The test workflows also installros-lyrical-test-msgs;ros-lyrical-mrpt-msgsis omitted because it is not yet published for lyrical (the previous tarball path skipped both packages on lyrical too, so the test suite already tolerates its absence). Removes thecurl | tar xfextract step, therosdep init/update/installchain with its long--skip-keyslist, and thetar,bzip2,python3-rosdeppackages they required. Rolling continues to use the nightly tarball; humble/jazzy/kilted continue to useros-tooling/setup-ros@v0.7, which does not yet recognize lyrical.Fix: #1458
