Bug Description

the bluetooth plugin todo.txt mentions

"_ "Signal Strength" is currently a lie, it's always listed as "Fair".
  This information doesn't seem to be provided by bluez?"

If that's the case we should probably just hide the line from the UI until it's properly supported (maybe with the new bluez)

It isn't a lie. We just never processed the value coming from BlueZ.

  * Reworking bluetooth support in settings a bit to work as it should:
    devices are now correctly connected after they got paired which
    wasn't the case before due to timing reasons
    (org.bluez.Audio/Input/... interface wasn't registered yet)
    DevicePage is now created on the fly to avoid it displaying
    information for a moment from a previously selected device
    DevicePage is now split out of the PageComponent.qml file Discover
    service functionality is dropped as bluez does this on its own and
    we don't need to care (LP: #1488836)
