[Bug 1527354] [NEW] [Jawbone ERA] HFP features not working with Bluez5

[Tony Espy]

Public bug reported:

While debugging some re-factoring work on the ofono upower plugin, I
noticed that I wasn't able to answer or terminate calls using my Jawbone
ERA headset.  I bought this headset last year, and although it's an
older model, it's spec sheet states that it supports HSP 1.1, and HFP
1.5.

I can pair the device with my krillin, and it properly auto connects (
note, this seems to work better than my iPhone ).   In-call audio works
for both incoming and outgoing calls, however I get no ringtone in the
headset and as mentioned above, I can't answer or terminate the call.
I've verified on my iPhone6, that the headset works.  In addition to a
ringtone in the earpiece, the headset also announces the incoming phone
number.

>From looking at the ofono debug output, I'm never seeing a new HFP
connection occur.  I noticed as the upower plugin uses a foreach_atom
(HFP) style call to update the battery indicators on all attached HFP
devices.

I've tested this extensively on krillin, running rc-proposed:

phablet at ubuntu-phablet:~$ system-image-cli -i
current build number: 205
device name: krillin
channel: ubuntu-touch/rc-proposed/bq-aquaris.en
last update: 2015-12-16 17:53:19
version version: 205
version ubuntu: 20151216
version device: 20151204-2254a36
version custom: 20151111--36-46-vivid

I've also tested on mako, rc-proposed ( #317 ).

For reference here's the versions of bluez, ofono, and PulseAudio on the
device:

bluez	            5.36-0ubuntu2~overlay1
ofono              1.17.bzr6908+15.04.20151203-0ubuntu1~awe3
pulseaudio	    1:6.0-0ubuntu9.11
