Need to double check but I think we do set BT_CONNECT in case of LE
when it is queued so which shall prevent it to be queued multiple
times.

BT_CONNECT already indicates that connection procedure is in progress.

Btw, I'd probably clean up the connect function and create something
like hci_connect/hci_connect_sync which takes care of the details
internally like it was done to abort.

Well we could perhaps do a lookup by pointer to see if the connection
hasn't been removed in the meantime, that said to force a clash on the
handles it need to happen in between abort, which frees the handle,
and connect, anyway the real culprit here is that we should be able to
abort the cmd_sync callback like we do in LE:

https://github.com/bluez/bluetooth-next/blob/master/net/bluetooth/hci_conn.c#L2943

That way we stop the connect callback to run and don't have to worry
about handle re-use.
