Series [BlueZ,1/4] doc/mesh-api: Add "options" dictionary to Send/Publish | expand

Commit Message

Inga Stotland Aug. 24, 2020, 3:54 a.m. UTC
This modifies Send, DevKeySend, Publish & VendorPublish methods
on 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.
