[wpimath] Replace Speeds with Velocities (#8479)

Browse Source 
I left "free speed" alone since that's the technical term for it. In
general, velocity is a vector quantity, and speed is a magnitude (i.e.,
a strictly positive value).

This PR also replaces the speed verbiage in MotorController with duty
cycle.

Fixes #8423.
