Public bug reported:

Right now the user doesn't have any way to find out on which Bluetooth
profiles he is connected. The only thing he knows from the settings app
or the bluetooth indicator is that he is connected in some way with a
remote bluetooth device.

Android for example allows you to select for what you want to use a
known and auto connectable bluetooth device. For example it lists:

 * phone audio
 * media audio
 * contact sharing

where each of those points is an alias for one or more profiles (phone
audio: HFP/HSP, media-audio: A2DP AVCTP .., contact-sharing: PBAP).

We should at minimum list the profiles the user is connected to at the
moment in the settings application on the device information page.

On a next level we could implement a allow/deny preference for a device
or something similar.
