Add an event on device security level or encryption type change to
let user space know which level is currently in use.
Reset security level to 0 on disconnection so further connections
will correctly report security level changes.
This will be used for BlueZ qualification automation.

v1->v2:
- Add encryption type to the mgmt event
- Send event on security level or encryption type change
v2->v3:
- Replace fixed security level and ancryption type parameters by TLV array
to allow later enhancement.
v3->v4:
- Change MGMT_EV_SECURITY_LEVEL_CHANGED to 0x0034
- Add __counted_by for the tlv_data
- dynamically allow the mgmt_ev_security_level_changed structure
