Refactor attributes to reduce code duplication and improve maintainability.
* Add attribute base classes to provide common code.
* Add const where possible to functions and parameters.
* `NimBLECharacteristic::notify` no longer takes a `bool is_notification` parameter, instead `indicate()` should be called to send indications.
* `NimBLECharacteristic::indicate` now takes the same parameters as `notify`.
* `NimBLECharacteristicCallbacks` and `NimBLEDescriptorCallbacks` methods now take `const NimBLEConnInfo&` instead of non-const.
* `NimBLECharacteristic::onNotify` callback removed as unnecessary, the library does not call notify without app input.
* `NimBLERemoteCharacteristic::getRemoteService` now returns a `const NimBLERemoteService*` instead of non-const.
* Add NimBLEUUID constructor that takes a reference to `ble_uuid_any_t`.
* `NimBLERemoteService::getCharacteristics` now returns a `const std::vector<NimBLERemoteCharacteristic*>&` instead of non-const `std::vector<NimBLERemoteCharacteristic*>*`
* `NimBLERemoteService::getValue` now returns `NimBLEAttValue` instead of `std::string`
* `NimBLEService::getCharacteristics` now returns a `const std::vector<NimBLECharacteristic*>&` instead of a copy of std::vector<NimBLECharacteristic *>.
* Remove const requirement for NimBLEConnInfo parameter in callbacks.
Const is unnecessary as the data can't be changed by application code.
* Change NimBLERemoteCharacteristic::getRemoteService to return const pointer.
* Replaces the use of std::list with a fixed array to track and manage created client instances.
* Removes: NimBLEDevice::getClientList
* Replaces: NimBLEDevice::getClientListSize with NimBLEDevice::getCreatedClientCount
* Adds a new method, getPeerName to NimBLEServer to read the name from the peers device name characteristic.
* Adds a setting to automatically get the name of the peer when connected and provide it as an additional parameter in the onConnect callback.
* Adds callback with client name after authentication as it may change.
* Make NimBLEConnInfo functions const.
* Update callback functions and update client to use new functions.
* Update examples.
* Update migration guide.

This adds a callback that is called when a device is initially discovered.
It is always called wether scanning in passive or active mode. This allows
for active scanning to receive device detection information in the case where
the scan response is not sent/received.
This callback is optional, the application may decide to implement it or not.
This replaces NimBLEAdvertisedDeviceCallbacks with NimBLEScanCallbacks and adds a onScanEnd callback.
The callback parameter for NimBLEScan::start has been removed and the blocking overload for NimBLEScan::start
has been replaced by an overload of NimBLEScan::getResults with the same parameters.
Change the callback functions that receive a ble_gap_conn_desc pointer to instead receive a NimBLEConnInfo reference.
* Add a reason parameter to the server disconnect callback.
* Remove connect and disconnect callback that do not receive info parameters.
* Remove onRead and onWrite Characteristic callbacks that do not receive info parameters.
* Add info parameter to Descriptor onWrite and onRead callbacks.
* Add details to migration guide.
Removes the unnecessary NimBLECharacteristicCallbacks::Status enum and callback parameter from NimBLECharacteristic::onStatus.
This was maintained for compatibility with the Arduino BLE library and is not necessary as the return code from the stack is also provided.
* Update examples/docs.
Changes all functions that accept a time parameter to use milliseconds instead of seconds.
* Adds duration input to NimBLEDevice::startAdvertising and NimBLEServer::startAdvertising.
Adds support for advertising and connections with coded/2M PHY's.
Adds new classes `NimBLEExtAdvertising` and `NimBLEExtAdvertisement`.
When extended advertising is enabled the original advertising classes become unavailable and the new classes must be used.
Changed some return values for advertising methods for consistency with the new classes methods.
