[Bug] zenoh_bridge_ros2dds matching listener created only sometimes

[felix-kocht]

Describe the bug

When sending ros2 messages over a topic from a client to a server via zenoh, they sometimes do not arrive.
To establish a connection over the zenoh bridge, a ros2 subscriber is to be created automatically on the client that reads in the messages from the desired topic. This does not happen in some cases, resulting in no messages transferred to the server.

With our workaround (removing some code) it works for us, but removing some code is probably not ideal: https://github.com/pixel-robotics/zenoh-plugin-ros2dds/tree/always_create_subscriber

To reproduce

For a ros2 topic we have a

• Subscriber on server
• Publisher on robot

We use zenoh-dds-bridge as router on server, and as client to the router on our robot.
then restart the zenoh bridge on robot -> new zenoh subscriber on robot (matching to zenoh server publisher) is sometimes created and sometimes not. Thus, the messages published on the robot only sometimes arrive on the server, sometimes not.
