I realized that in the CarlaDataProvider._carla_actor_pool more and more dead actors accumulated over time when scenarios run. The reason is that actors are created over the CDP and are added to the pool, however, they are not destroyed over the CDP.
I think I located most of the locations where this is the case - however I think there is still at least one missing.

As a side result it the remove_actor_by_id function is now also slightly more informative. If the return value is None the users needs to take care of the destruction.


I also propose an update to the CarlaDataProvider._actor_[velocity, location, transform]_map, while this new code is in itself more expensive it was in the long run still faster as the sizes were overall smaller. Of course, just talking about a few ms.


Tested on

Platform(s): Ubuntu
Python version(s): 3.7 and 3.10
Unreal Engine version(s): 4.24

I'll check this in more detail over the next week to make sure of all the details but this is a great PR, thanks you very much.

I am confident that it should work. If the actor is registered, which all should be, they will be destroyed by CarlaDataProvider.remove_actor_by_id(actor.id). If one isn't, or was already removed, you will get a warning print and None is returned instead of False.
