It's not actually local_uuid that is so important but that p->connect is
set. Also, it'd make much more sense to pass the remote UUID to
ConnectProfile than the local one and we'll still do this change before
releasing 5.0. The main thing that needs to be done before that is to
convert profile->remote_uuids list to a single profile->remote_uuid
which is a bit of work since some profiles still declare multiple UUIDs.

So far no LE profile is hooked up to Device.Connect and I'm not sure
exactly how that should be done since LE device are connected through
the general connection establishment procedure which requires scanning
first. Since we already have Device.Pair doing the same as
CreatePairedDevice in BlueZ 4 (and this should work btw, did you try
it?) maybe Device.Connect should be roughly the same for LE devices as
Adapter.CreateDevice is in BlueZ 4? For BR/EDR devices it already serves
this purpose. The main question is what should be done if Device.Connect
is called subsequent times as bluetoothd should anyway already be doing
passive scanning and trying to connect to devices that have supported
profiles.
