Allocates segmented message buffers as slabs in a common pool for RX and
TX. This reduces memory requirements for both TX and RX, as TX messages
can be stored without the network and advertising buffer overhead, and
RX can use only the slabs it needs, instead of allocating a full size
segmented message. This approach also removes the need for decrypting
the segments for each retransmission, reducing overall processing load.
Slab based segmentation for tx also introduces queuing of segmented
messages, which allows the application layer to send multiple messages
to the same destination without violating Bluetooth Mesh specification
v1.0.1, section 3.6.4.1. This mechanism is provided through a flag that
blocks segmented messages to a destination which a message is already
being sent to until the previous message finishes.
This changes the SDU size configuration to a symmetrical
RX_SEG_MAX/TX_SEG_MAX pair of configurations, plus a new segment pool
side configuration. It also removes the binding between the TX_SEG_MAX
config and the advertising buffers, reducing the minimum advertising
buffer count from 6 to 3.

This reverts commit b66a6acad7.
The mesh test app is (at least for now) only supposed to be manually
run. It e.g. contains special configurations for feature-specific
testing using the Bluetooth PTS.
The ztest conversion that was done to the app doesn't really make any
sense since nothing of essence is tested by the ztest hooks and
everything that the app intends to be tested need manual action either
way.

Rename the BT_CONTROLLER prefix used in all of the Kconfig variables
related to the Bluetooth controller to BT_CTLR.

The API name space for Bluetooth is bt_* and BT_* so it makes sense to
align the Kconfig name space with this. The additional benefit is that
this also makes the names shorter. It is also in line with what Linux
uses for Bluetooth Kconfig entries.
Some Bluetooth-related Networking Kconfig defines are renamed as well
in order to be consistent, such as NET_L2_BLUETOOTH.

Add an initial implementation for the Bluetooth Mesh Profile
Specification. The main code resides in subsys/bluetooth/host/mesh and
the public API can be found in include/bluetooth/mesh.h. There are a
couple of samples provided as well under samples/bluetooth and
tests/bluetooth.
The implementation covers all layers of the Bluetooth Mesh stack and
most optional features as well. The following is a list of some of
these features and the c-files where the implementation can be found:
- GATT & Advertising bearers (proxy.c & adv.c)
- Network Layer (net.c)
- Lower and Upper Transport Layers (transport.c)
- Access Layer (access.c)
- Foundation Models, Server role (health.c & cfg.c)
- Both PB-ADV and PB-GATT based provisioning (prov.c)
- Low Power Node support (lpn.c)
- Relay support (net.c)
- GATT Proxy (proxy.c)
Notable features that are *not* part of the implementation:
- Friend support (initial bits are in place in friend.c)
- Provisioner support (low-value for typical Zephyr devices)
- GATT Client (low-value for typical Zephyr devices)
