Proper Bluetooth LE support

The device have Bluetooth 4.0 support and that include LE, but the current APIs provided are old and does not properly support LE. Bluez needs to be updated to 5.x and proper BTLE Qt APIs should be added.

Edit by c.la 20150413: I just noticed in Harbour the app Parrot ZIK 2.0 Manager that includes a backport of QtBluetooth 5.4. Can't this be included in jolla update?

EDIT 2017-09-12 by martonmiklos: After the release of the Jämsänjoki the Bluez5 supported devices has all the things needed for creating applications with BLE connectivity (Qt libraries). However the harbour RPM validator still reject these apps due the libQt5Bluetooth.so.5 usage. I would say the BLE support could be said to proper once the official apps could utilize that.
