Fix #100 by updating to a development cut of NimBLE-Arduino. Whilst here improve device bond handling, this makes subsequent pair/forget sequences a little less iffy.

* Add per-camera task and queue. Lay the foundation for supporting simultaneous, parallel camera connections. The UI now sends commands to the control task, which relays them to per-camera tasks. This allows the UI and each connected camera to operate asynchronously. Increase limit maximum clients from 3 to 8. * Display human readable mobile device names. Fix #100 by updating to a development cut of NimBLE-Arduino. Whilst here improve device bond handling, this makes subsequent pair/forget sequences a little less iffy. * Implement multi-connect. M5ez: Add context to menu item advanced function. Furble: Tweak NimBLE settings. Remove scan duration, now scan forever as we can stop on demand. Drop global interval_t, load as needed to reduce variable scope. Add setting to toggle multi-connect. Modify connection menu to support tagging cameras. Add ability to connect to all tagged cameras. Cannot get directed advertising to mobile devices so still disabled. Multi-connect to mobile devices is super iffy, not recommended for production use. * Tweak the code style a little. Fix minor error in shutter lock formatting, introduced when migrating from String to std::string. Also removed unused macros. * Update clang-format action version. * Fix m5stack-core build. * Minor style updates. Move some more code into std::string native and const a few more parameters. * Further C++ refactoring. Refactor the Camera type into the base Camera class. Refactor fillSaveName into CameraList class, it is only used there. Style adjustments.

The current BLE library does not provide an easy way to get the smartphone name during connection, we use the bluetooth MAC address at the moment.
However, there are changes coming that will make this possible.
Thus, rather than being asked to connect to unreadable "AA:BB:CC:....", we should be able to ask to connect to "My smartphone".
