BLE: Add service UUID to advertisement, remove descriptors to save space

BLE can only fit 251 bytes of payload in notifications which isn't nearly enough for a raw V2X message.
So only publish a notification which message was received and let the client
poll the content from the characteristic (since reads can get data in fragments)

 ### BLE
 Enable BLE I/O protocol according to [docs/ble-protocol.md](./docs/ble-protocol.md).
-Will enable `denm` feature, but also enabling `cam` is recommended for full functionality.
+Enabling `denm` feature or `cam` feature is recommended, otherwise no data will be received.
 
-Note: Raw message reception is currently not implemented!
+Note: When changing the set of supported messages on the BLE interface, you may need to turn bluetooth off and on again on your client device.
+Otherwise the client may not re-scan the service's characteristics and still use the previous set of characteristics.
