* Initial ports for FreeRTOS and RIOT OS
* Support for advertising up to 1650 bytes of data with Extended Advertising
* Support for host flow control
* Support for Direct Test Mode (DTM) via HCI interface
* Support for Device Information Service
* Bugfixes for issues found on UPF59 and during BT certification testing
* Lots of other bugfixes, minor enhancements and optimisations
