Description

Does nimble provide any function to stop and restart the radio and the ble stack? My purpose is to eventually save power by being able to manually turn off BLE via quick settings and using auto detect so if the pinetime hasn't moved in a certain amount of time it'll turn it off. But also for security, as currently there isn't anything in place to decline pair requests

Research direction

The issue names no file, test, or entry point. Start by checking NimBLE's public BLE-stack and pairing APIs for supported radio or stack stop/restart behavior and pair-request rejection. Done would be a documented, actionable answer covering the requested power-saving and security use cases.
