Bluetooth B3: GATT scheme endpoints and HciBackend real GATT workflow

Add GATT client helpers to btusb scheme (GattDiscoverServices,
GattDiscoverChars, GattReadChar, GattServices, GattCharacteristics)
with ATT-over-ACL transport. Wire HciBackend::read_char to perform
real GATT workflow through scheme filesystem (discover services →
discover characteristics → read value) instead of hardcoded stub.
209 tests passing (151 btusb + 56 btctl + 2 wifictl).

| Pairing / bond database | **experimental bounded slice** | `redbear-btctl` now persists conservative stub bond records under `/var/lib/bluetooth/<adapter>/bonds/`; connect/disconnect control targets those records, and the checker now verifies cleanup honesty, but this is still storage/control plumbing only, not real pairing or generic reconnect validation |

**B3 COMPLETION EVIDENCE (2026-04-25)**:
- `local/recipes/drivers/redbear-btusb/source/src/hci.rs` — ATT/GATT types added: AttPdu with 8 builder methods (Read By Group Type Req/Rsp, Read By Type Req/Rsp, Read Req/Rsp, Error Rsp), GattService/GattCharacteristic structs, ATT-over-ACL L2CAP helpers (att_to_acl, acl_to_att), ATT/GATT response parsers, 12 new ATT/GATT tests (~1900 lines total)
- `local/recipes/drivers/redbear-btusb/source/src/scheme.rs` — 5 new GATT handle kinds: GattDiscoverServices, GattDiscoverChars, GattReadChar, GattServices, GattCharacteristics. Write handlers send ATT requests via ACL transport, read handlers return formatted results. 14 new GATT scheme tests (151 total)
- `local/recipes/system/redbear-btctl/source/src/hci_backend.rs` — HciBackend::read_char now performs real GATT workflow: resolve connection handle → discover services → find Battery Service handle range → discover characteristics → find Battery Level value handle → read characteristic value → format as gatt-value with hex/percent. 11 new GATT workflow tests (56 total)
- 209 total tests passing (151 btusb + 56 btctl + 2 wifictl)
- GATT protocol flow: ATT Read By Group Type Request (UUID 0x1800 primary service) → parse service entries → ATT Read By Type Request (UUID 0x2803 characteristic) → parse characteristic entries → ATT Read Request → parse raw bytes
- Result format changes from `stub-value` to `gatt-value` when real GATT data is obtained
**B3 exit criteria assessment**:
- ✅ ATT/GATT types and parsers cover the Battery Service workload (Read By Group Type, Read By Type, Read, Error Response)
- ✅ GATT scheme endpoints fully wired in btusb scheme (discover services, discover chars, read char, cached results)
- ✅ btctl HciBackend performs end-to-end GATT workflow through scheme filesystem
- ✅ 209 tests passing with comprehensive GATT coverage
- 🚧 "one real BLE device type works reliably on the chosen controller family" — not yet runtime-validated with real hardware; code path is software-complete and testable with USB BT adapter
