Actually after a few minutes thought, I wondered whether we could
handle this by exporting a D-Bus interface from the autopair plugin
(like dbus-oob) so you could simply query whether or not a device has
presentation hints/needs encryption hints.

This is another good solution, a plugin callback from here could
verify whether or not to pair, etc.

Because that's a UI restriction, no?

I didn't put any PIN-generation code here, because I'm not entirely
sure what the UI for "generate random PIN' should look like or which
spec you're following.
