Add NimBLEAttValue class. (#67)

This is a specialized container class to hold BLE attribute values.

- Removes the use of std::string previously used to store the values.
- Allows for setting/getting/notifying values from std::string, std::vector<uint8_t>, Arduino String, const char*, and uint8_t buffers.
- Has operators retrieve the value as std::string, Arduino String, std::vector<uint8_t>, uint8_t* or char pointers.
- Includes iterators and subscript/random access operator.
- Introduces a max length parameter to the creation of server characteristics/descriptors to limit the size of the memory footprint.
- Nearly Seamless integration with existing code.
- Adds a config option to enable/disable timestamp storage when the value is updated.
- Adds a config option to specify the initial size of the value container if not specified in the constructor.

`CONFIG_NIMBLE_CPP_ATT_VALUE_TIMESTAMP_ENABLED`
Enable/disable storing the timestamp when an attribute value is updated
This allows for checking the last update time using getTimeStamp() or getValue(time_t*)
If disabled, the timestamp returned from these functions will be 0.
Disabling timestamps will reduce the memory used for each value.
1 = Enabled, 0 = Disabled; Default = Disabled
<br/>
`CONFIG_NIMBLE_CPP_ATT_VALUE_INIT_LENGTH`
Set the default allocation size (bytes) for each attribute.
If not specified when the constructor is called. This is also the size used when a remote
characteristic or descriptor is constructed before a value is read/notifed.
Increasing this will reduce reallocations but increase memory footprint.
Default value is 20. Range: 1 : 512 (BLE_ATT_ATTR_MAX_LEN)

`CONFIG_BT_NIMBLE_ATT_PREFERRED_MTU`
Sets the default MTU size.
