The Openembedded Layer Index [1] shows that python-six in
version 1.10.0 is already provided in the openembedded-core layer
and in the meta-python layer, so there is no need for a third copy
of the python-six recipe in meta-ros.
The recipe python-six is provided since commit a36869c7 in the
meta-openembedded repository (commit date: 2015-04-13), and
is provided since commit 9979e35f in the openembedded-core
repository (commit date: 2016-07-20).
In my opinion, at least the commit a36869c7 is far enough in the
past, so that we can safely assume that all new meta-ros use a setup
where python-six is included at least in meta-python.
For users of older versions, we include a remark in the README.md to
allow `git blame` to pinpoint to this commit here.

The recent versions of the rosbridge_library package does not depend
on python-pytz anymore. So, this commit removes the dependency in
the recipe file and removes the now unneeded python-pytz recipe.

Bitbake gives a dependency error when IMAGE_FEATURES += " dev-pkgs" is set.
This is because the urdfdom-headers package contains headers only, as a
result bitbake packages them into urdfdom-headers-dev and leaves
urdfdom-headers empty.
Since there are no files to be packaged into urdfdom-headers bitbake
doesn't create the package. urdfdom-headers is a dependency
of urdfdom-headers-dev by default so bitbake errors when building an image
with dev-pkgs enabled.
ALLOW_EMPTY tells bitbake to create a package even when nothing is in it.
This resolves the dependency issue of urdfdom-headers-dev

While testing the version updates, I noticed that the
camera-calibration-parsers were missing the roscpp dependencies,
and hence do_configure failed with:
```
| Could not find a package configuration file provided by "roscpp" with any
| of the following names:
|
| roscppConfig.cmake
| roscpp-config.cmake
|
| Add the installation prefix of "roscpp" to CMAKE_PREFIX_PATH or set
| "roscpp_DIR" to a directory containing one of the above files. If "roscpp"
| provides a separate development package or SDK, be sure it has been
| installed.
| Call Stack (most recent call first):
| CMakeLists.txt:4 (find_package)

| -- Configuring incomplete, errors occurred!
