microbuilder opened a new issue #217: Add missing GATT descriptor UUIDs
URL: https://github.com/apache/mynewt-nimble/issues/217
 
 
   The current release of nimble includes a define for the [client characteristic configuration descriptor (0x2902)](https://github.com/apache/mynewt-nimble/blob/master/nimble/host/include/host/ble_gatt.h#L46). None of the other [official descriptor UUIDs](https://www.bluetooth.com/specifications/gatt/descriptors) are present in `ble_gatt.h`. 
   
   In order to make use of the [characteristic user description (0x2901)](https://www.bluetooth.com/specifications/gatt/viewer?attributeXmlFile=org.bluetooth.descriptor.gatt.characteristic_user_description.xml), I currently have to define this myself or hard-code the value, both of which seem unfortunate.
   
   Would it be appropriate to add at least the more commonly used ones, or does the current code operate under the premise that defines are only added as they are needed in the library itself or the larger mynewt-core repository? As limiting as that may be, I understand the goal of avoiding code bloat.
