extmod/modbluetooth: Change scan result's "connectable" to "adv_type".
This commit changes the BLE _IRQ_SCAN_RESULT data from: addr_type, addr, connectable, rssi, adv_data to: addr_type, addr, adv_type, rssi, adv_data This allows _IRQ_SCAN_RESULT to handle all scan result types (not just connectable and non-connectable passive scans), and to distinguish between them using adv_type which is an integer taking values 0x00-0x04 per the BT specification. This is a breaking change to the API, albeit a very minor one: the existing connectable value was a boolean and True now becomes 0x00, False becomes 0x02. Documentation is updated and a test added. Fixes #5738.

+ For each scan result the ``_IRQ_SCAN_RESULT`` event will be raised, with event

+ * 0x04 - SCAN_RSP - scan response
When scanning is stopped (either due to the duration finishing or when
explicitly stopped), the ``_IRQ_SCAN_COMPLETE`` event will be raised.
