aioble: Pass additional connection arguments to gap_connect.

[Joris-van-der-Wel]

In my project I am connecting using aioble to a human input device. There is noticeable input lag. Turns out the RTT latency is a little over 200ms (I test this by timing await char.write(b'foo', response=1)). I suspect this is because the BLE connection interval is being set to 100ms. The gap_connect function allows setting min_conn_interval_us and max_conn_interval_us, however there is no way to do so using aioble.

This PR allows the following additional arguments to be passed to device.connect():

• scan_duration_ms
• min_conn_interval_us
• max_conn_interval_us

These are passed as-is to gap_connect(). The default value for all of these is None, which causes gap_connect to use its own defaults.

With this change I managed to get the RTT latency down to ~60ms, this feels a lot better in my project.

I personally have no objection against this PR related to conn_intervals.

However, I sometimes saw an error when using characteristic.notified() with the arguments as followings.
I am not sure about the other possible errors that might be introduced by using these arguments.

scan_duration_ms=5000 or 2000
min_conn_interval_us=7500 or 11250
max_conn_interval_us=7500 or 11250

Important part of the error trace:

  File "/lib/aioble/client.py", line 384, in notified
  File "/lib/aioble/client.py", line 378, in _notified_indicated
IndexError: empty

A fix for me to this error was to simply add asyncio.sleep_ms(5) just before reading the notified queue in client.py .
async def _notified_indicated(self, queue, event, timeout_ms):

    async def _notified_indicated(self, queue, event, timeout_ms):
        # Ensure that events for this connection can route to this characteristic.
        self._register_with_connection()

        # If the queue is empty, then we need to wait. However, if the queue
        # has a single item, we also need to do a no-op wait in order to
        # clear the event flag (because the queue will become empty and
        # therefore the event should be cleared).
        if len(queue) <= 1:
            with self._connection().timeout(timeout_ms):
                await event.wait()

        # Either we started > 1 item, or the wait completed successfully, return
        # the front of the queue.
+       await asyncio.sleep_ms(5)
        return queue.popleft()
