Bluetooth: Fix issue with ADV_IND reports and auto-connection handling
When adding remote devices to the kernel using the Add Device management command, these devices are explicitly allowed to connect. This kind of incoming connections are possible even when the controller itself is not connectable. For BR/EDR this distinction is pretty simple since there is only one type of incoming connections. With LE this is not that simple anymore since there are ADV_IND and ADV_DIRECT_IND advertising events. The ADV_DIRECT_IND advertising events are send for incoming (slave initiated) connections only. And this is the only thing the kernel should allow when adding devices using action 0x01. This meaning of incoming connections is coming from BR/EDR and needs to be mapped to LE the same way. Supporting the auto-connection of devices using ADV_IND advertising events is an important feature as well. However it does not map to incoming connections. So introduce a new action 0x02 that allows the kernel to connect to devices using ADV_DIRECT_IND and in addition ADV_IND advertising reports. This difference is represented by the new HCI_AUTO_CONN_DIRECT value for only connecting to ADV_DIRECT_IND. For connection to ADV_IND and ADV_DIRECT_IND the old value HCI_AUTO_CONN_ALWAYS is used.
