Neither oFono nor BlueZ will enable the plugins for HFP support unless
DBus-1.3 is installed (or alternatively a hacked dbus-1.2 with file
descriptor passing support)

The connection initiator is actually irrelevant.  You just need to make
sure that BlueZ has paired with your device and the HandsfreeGateway
interface is created for your device.

If you want this, then you will need to eventually write your own plugin
that will manage the RFCOMM and SCO sockets.  Today, BlueZ does this part...
