This module provides an interface to a Bluetooth controller on a board.
Currently this supports Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) in Central, Peripheral,
Broadcaster, and Observer roles, as well as GATT Server and Client. A device

This API is intended to match the low-level Bluetooth protocol and provide

peripheral initiating the MTU exchange. NimBLE works for both roles.
L2CAP connection-oriented-channels
----------------------------------
This feature allows for socket-like data exchange between two BLE devices.
Once the devices are connected via GAP, either device can listen for the
other to connect on a numeric PSM (Protocol/Service Multiplexer).
**Note:** This is currently only supported when using the NimBLE stack on
STM32 and Unix (not ESP32). Only one L2CAP channel may be active at a given
time (i.e. you cannot connect while listening).
Active L2CAP channels are identified by the connection handle that they were
established on and a CID (channel ID).
Connection-oriented channels have built-in credit-based flow control. Unlike
ATT, where devices negotiate a shared MTU, both the listening and connecting
devices each set an independent MTU which limits the maximum amount of
outstanding data that the remote device can send before it is fully consumed
in :meth:`l2cap_recvinto <BLE.l2cap_recvinto>`.
.. method:: BLE.l2cap_listen(psm, mtu, /)
Start listening for incoming L2CAP channel requests on the specified *psm*
with the local MTU set to *mtu*.
When a remote device initiates a connection, the ``_IRQ_L2CAP_ACCEPT``
event will be raised, which gives the listening server a chance to reject
the incoming connection (by returning a non-zero integer).
Once the connection is accepted, the ``_IRQ_L2CAP_CONNECT`` event will be
raised, allowing the server to obtain the channel id (CID) and the local and
remote MTU.
**Note:** It is not currently possible to stop listening.
.. method:: BLE.l2cap_connect(conn_handle, psm, mtu, /)
Connect to a listening peer on the specified *psm* with local MTU set to *mtu*.
On successful connection, the the ``_IRQ_L2CAP_CONNECT`` event will be
raised, allowing the client to obtain the CID and the local and remote (peer) MTU.
An unsuccessful connection will raise the ``_IRQ_L2CAP_DISCONNECT`` event
with a non-zero status.
.. method:: BLE.l2cap_disconnect(conn_handle, cid, /)
Disconnect an active L2CAP channel with the specified *conn_handle* and
*cid*.
.. method:: BLE.l2cap_send(conn_handle, cid, buf, /)
Send the specified *buf* (which must support the buffer protocol) on the
L2CAP channel identified by *conn_handle* and *cid*.
The specified buffer cannot be larger than the remote (peer) MTU, and no
more than twice the size of the local MTU.
This will return ``False`` if the channel is now "stalled", which means that
:meth:`l2cap_send <BLE.l2cap_send>` must not be called again until the
``_IRQ_L2CAP_SEND_READY`` event is received (which will happen when the
remote device grants more credits, typically after it has received and
processed the data).
.. method:: BLE.l2cap_recvinto(conn_handle, cid, buf, /)
Receive data from the specified *conn_handle* and *cid* into the provided
*buf* (which must support the buffer protocol, e.g. bytearray or
memoryview).
Returns the number of bytes read from the channel.
If *buf* is None, then returns the number of bytes available.
**Note:** After receiving the ``_IRQ_L2CAP_RECV`` event, the application should
continue calling :meth:`l2cap_recvinto <BLE.l2cap_recvinto>` until no more
bytes are available in the receive buffer (typically up to the size of the
remote (peer) MTU).
Until the receive buffer is empty, the remote device will not be granted
more channel credits and will be unable to send any more data.
