Description
Motivation and Context
Now that we have a BLE server (#157), being able to pair quickly and with a nice interface (supporting app matching) would be great. On Android, this can be provided by using the google:nearby/embedded framework and supporting the Google Fast Pair Service (GFPS). This PR adds support for that. GFPS doesn't preclude standard settings-menu-based pairing, but offers an alternative and is based on proximity of the android device to the bluetooth peripheral. It also still supports standard pairing on iOS as well.
NOTE: you will have to register your own device on the google nearby devices dashboard.
NOTE: this uses NimBLE as the BLE stack of choice. If you want to see a bluedroid implementation, see finger563/esp-gfps-example
How has this been tested?
Building and running the new example on a QtPy ESP32s3.
