Subject: [PATCH BlueZ 0/4] Mesh send/publish API change

This patch set modifies Send, DevKeySend, Publish & VendorPublish
methods on bleuz.mesh.Node interface to include additional argument
"options".
This new argument is a dictionary that currently has only one
new key word defined:
"ForceSegmented" - to force small payloads to be sent as
one-segment messages

Other key words may be defined in future to accommodate evolving
requirements of Mesh Profile specification.

I wonder if we should take this opportunity to eliminate this Method in favor of adding a Vendor key to the new
dictionary in Publish(). If the key is missing, then from the dictionary in Publish(), then it is a Sig
defined model, and if present, then it operating like the current PublishVendor(). This would simplify the
code in the daemon, and make a smaller code footprint.
