Hi BlueZ Maintainers,

This is a patch series that introduces Battery Provider API, a means for
external clients to feed battery reporting to BlueZ if they can decode
it from a profile/protocol. A sample use case would be for HFP handlers
(e.g. pulseaudio commonly in Linux system or CRAS in Chrome OS) that has
the battery information reported via HFP extensions.

This patch series also refactors the existing battery API to be split
into internal API rather than GATT BAS specific. This way internal
plugins can also make use of convenient functions to reliable register
battery objects.

The battery information is then exposed via the existing Battery1 API.
Many UI components already consume this so they will be able to display
many Bluetooth peripherals' battery information via a unified BlueZ API.
