Applied to master, thanks.

Arnout, Peter, Yann: in order to preserve backward compatibility,
Michael has created those new options with a "default y". However,
while it keeps backward compatibility, it also means that all new users
will get a more bloated bluez_utils installation than is probably
necessary. Should we break our backward compatibility rule here and
drop the "default y" on those new options ?

Best regards,

Thomas
