Allow a GATT server to impose permissions/restrictions on a CCC by
setting additional `X-notify` and `X-indicate` permissions on its
associated characteristic.
This allows a developer to require encryption/authentication in order
for a GATT client to subscribe to server-initiated updates.
Test procedure:
Attempt to read/write with a "low" security level on an unprotected CCC
using gatttool, and succeed
Attempt to READ with a "low" security level on an protected CCC
using gatttool, and succeed
Attempt to WRITE with a "low" security level on an protected CCC
using gatttool, and fail
Attempt to read/write while paired on a protected CCC using
`bluetoothctl`, and succeed
