Description
It would be nice if there were a characteristic for reading and writing firmware MCUboot confirmation status.
This would provide:
- A way to make sure Bluetooth LE works
- A nice UI to show that Bluetooth LE needs to be confirmed (or is confirmed)
- Companion apps a way to warn the user that they haven't confirmed the newly flashed firmware
The characteristic could have three states:
- 0 - unconfirmed
- 1 - Bluetooth LE confirmed
- 2 - confirmed

Research direction
Start by locating the Bluetooth LE characteristic definitions and the MCUboot confirmation interface in the firmware. Compare the requested three states with the existing firmware-confirmation flow, then verify that reading and writing the characteristic supports the stated confirmation and companion-app use cases.
