I would explain this a little further, just saying "default value"
doesn't seem to do it justice. Say that "auto" will cause a BR/EDR &
LE interleaved scan on dual-mode controllers, on single-mode
(LE-only/BREDR-only) controllers it will work on whatever the
controller supports.

You probably want to add org.bluez.Error.InvalidArguments as a
possible error. You'll have to check that the filter dictionary
contains values of the correct type (since it's type is a{sv}) and the
"transport" argument contains auto/le/bredr. For anything else, you
should return the InvalidArguments error.
