So, based on my understanding, android/gatt treats an attribute
permission value of "0" as "this is a declaration attribute since we
didn't explicitly set it". Hence, returning 0 here will break things
in the android code once it starts using the gatt_db_attribute_*
functions.

That said, I don't like this logic one bit in the first place. Instead
of having "0" mean "anything goes" and having a special define for "no
permissions" (such as GATT_PERM_NONE from android/gatt and
BT_GATT_PERM from shared/att-types), we should just treat 0 to mean no
permissions. I.e. we should define BT_GATT_PERM_NONE as 0, and have
gatt_db_add_service, _add_characteristic, etc. explicitly set at least
the BT_GATT_PERM_READ permission on the declaration attributes.

In short we should unify the permission story for shared/gatt and
android/gatt sooner then later.
