Im afraid this is not really useful anymore, at least not if you
expect to things like the new gnome-bluetooth to work since bluetoothd
needs the sdp records the device export in order to probe the driver
which takes care of profiles. In other words profiles won't just work
because you got the linkkey. Despite this I don't think such thing
belongs to BlueZ codebase, nobody will be going to maintain a windows
c++ source code.
