[wpilib] DriverStation: Change alliance station to use optional (#5229)

Many teams have issues trying to read the DS too early. By switching to an optional, we cause teams to check 2 things. Either 1) they explicitly check, and their code is correct, or 2) they just read .value() and their code reboots in a loop. However, because the DS will eventually connect, this 2nd case is ok, and should theoretically be undetectable on the field.
