Bluetooth: Samples: Use string printing functions for error codes
...
When developing Bluetooth applications, you typically run into some errors.
If you are an experienced Bluetooth developer, you would typically know
how to translate the error codes into string representations.
Others might not.
This commit to adds string printing of error codes for all
samples to make them more user-friendly.
Several formatting alternatives were considered. The chosen alternative
balances code readability and FLASH size (with and without string
printing).
Example output from the peripheral_hids sample when the
peer rejects pairing:
```
Bluetooth initialized
Bluetooth authentication callbacks registered.
Advertising successfully started
Connected 5E:67:02:D3:1C:DB (random)
Security failed: 5E:67:02:D3:1C:DB (random) \
level 1 err 6 BT_SECURITY_ERR_PAIR_NOT_ALLOWED
Disconnected from 5E:67:02:D3:1C:DB (random), \
reason 0x13 BT_HCI_ERR_REMOTE_USER_TERM_CONN
```
Other alternatives that were considered:
- Use of parantheses:
```
// strings enabled
Security failed: 5E:67:02:D3:1C:DB (random) level 1 \
err BT_SECURITY_ERR_PAIR_NOT_ALLOWED(6)
Disconnected from 5E:67:02:D3:1C:DB (random), reason \
BT_HCI_ERR_REMOTE_USER_TERM_CONN(0x13)
// strings disabled
Security failed: 5E:67:02:D3:1C:DB (random) level 1 err (6)
Disconnected from 5E:67:02:D3:1C:DB (random), reason (0x13)
```
- Spaces and parantheses:
```
// strings enabled
Security failed: 5E:67:02:D3:1C:DB (random) level 1 \
err BT_SECURITY_ERR_PAIR_NOT_ALLOWED (6)
Disconnected from 5E:67:02:D3:1C:DB (random), \
reason BT_HCI_ERR_REMOTE_USER_TERM_CONN (0x13)
// strings disabled
Security failed: 5E:67:02:D3:1C:DB (random) level 1 err (6)
Disconnected from 5E:67:02:D3:1C:DB (random), reason (0x13)
```
- Parantheses around everything:
```
// strings enabled
Security failed: 5E:67:02:D3:1C:DB (random) level 1 \
err (BT_SECURITY_ERR_PAIR_NOT_ALLOWED(6))
Disconnected from 5E:67:02:D3:1C:DB (random), \
reason (BT_HCI_ERR_REMOTE_USER_TERM_CONN(0x13))
// strings disabled
Security failed: 5E:67:02:D3:1C:DB (random) level 1 err ((6))
Disconnected from 5E:67:02:D3:1C:DB (random), reason ((0x13))
```
- Error code first, then string representation:
```
// strings enabled
Security failed: 5E:67:02:D3:1C:DB (random) level 1 \
err 6 (BT_SECURITY_ERR_PAIR_NOT_ALLOWED)
Disconnected from 5E:67:02:D3:1C:DB (random), reason \
0x13 (BT_HCI_ERR_REMOTE_USER_TERM_CONN)
// strings disabled
Security failed: 5E:67:02:D3:1C:DB (random) level 1 err 6 ()
Disconnected from 5E:67:02:D3:1C:DB (random), reason 0x13 ()
```
- Apostrophes around error printing:
```
// strings enabled
Security failed: 5E:67:02:D3:1C:DB (random) level 1 \
err "BT_SECURITY_ERR_PAIR_NOT_ALLOWED (6)"
Disconnected from 5E:67:02:D3:1C:DB (random), reason \
"BT_HCI_ERR_REMOTE_USER_TERM_CONN (0x13)"
// strings disabled
Security failed: 5E:67:02:D3:1C:DB (random) level 1 err " (6)"
Disconnected from 5E:67:02:D3:1C:DB (random), reason " (0x13)"
```

samples: bluetooth: Added sample for Extended Advertisements
...
Both advertiser and scanner demonstrate the use of extended advertising
and scanning, and how to gracefully restart the extended advertisements
through the use of recycle() callback. In the sample, the advertiser
initiates a connectable advertisement set, which prompts the scanner to
connect. After the connection is established, the advertiser waits for
5 seconds to disconnect. After the connection is dropped, the advertiser
immediately restarts broadcasting, while the scanner cools-down for
5 seconds to restart its process.
