Jukka Laitinen 2985b5b9c2 msg/ActuatorTest.msg: Use default queue size the same as MAX_NUM_MOTORS
For the esc_calibration code, the actuator test is published for each motor
in a row. If the orb queue size is too small, messages are lost and not
received in mixer_module.

Set the default orb queue size of ActuatorTest high enough to keep the commands
for all motors in the queue.
