Damon Kohler c8f33ee853 Drop sensor data until progress can be made. (#124)
The sensor collator now finds a common starting time for all sensor
data. For example, this prevents us from processing arbitrarily many IMU
packets before our first scan match and makes it possible to auto pause
and resume a trajectory in the event of sensor data interruption.
