This patch is essentially equivalent to that of Bernd[1], expect that is also
updates the help text.
I think Andy's suggestion[2] is better than both, but it needs some more work
to address Peter's comments, and maybe split into separate tools and plugins
patches. I also think that we should group all deprecated tools together, and
replace the BR2_PACKAGE_BLUEZ5_UTILS_GATTTOOL option with
BR2_PACKAGE_BLUEZ5_UTILS_DEPRECATED.
I don't think we should remove gatttool installation as Sam suggests[3]. E.g.
the hciattach tool is also deprecated upstream, but it is unfortunately still
required for many real world Bluetooth installations.
I'll take over Andy's patch as time permits.
