Getting joint names from robot class

Hello,

In my current application, I need to know the joints names and order of my jacobi.Robot.
For example, something like this:

robot = jacobi.robots.FrankaPanda()
robot.get_joints_names()  # --> ['panda_joint1', 'panda_joint2', 'panda_joint3', 'panda_joint4', 'panda_joint5', 'panda_joint6', 'panda_joint7']

I didn't find any way to do it currently (v0.0.23). Would that be possible to add such a feature?

Thanks! At the moment, the user can get the joints as an array (organized chronologically), and then create a variable per joint independently. Can you clarify when having the joint names in the API is necessary?

Sure.

In my current system, the trajectory generated by the jacobi planner is passed to a larger system that handles more degrees of freedom. So I need to map the values of --for instance-- the trajectory.positions array to the proper joints in the larger system. For this, I need to know the joint names corresponding to the values provided in trajectory.
