I must admit that I totally ignored LE case :) I'll add TK to dictionary,
yet I'm not very familiar with LE, is TK a random number returned by 'LE Rand'
command ? It doesn't seem to have same semantic as 'Read Local OOB Data' command.
Hints?

In spec there are 'Flags' and 'Security Manager OOB Flags' EIR data types,
is that needed/useful for LE case? Maybe pass them as blobs to bluez so that
dbusoob user doesn't need to parse those bit fields to set address type?
