With the last commit we moved to using the hci_sync queue for "Create
Connection" requests, removing the need for retrying the paging after
finished/failed "Create Connection" requests and after the end of
inquiries.

hci_conn_check_pending() was used to trigger this retry, we can remove it
now.

Note that we can also remove the special handling for COMMAND_DISALLOWED
errors in the completion handler of "Create Connection", because "Create
Connection" requests are now always serialized.

This is somewhat reverting commit 4c67bc74f016 ("[Bluetooth] Support
concurrent connect requests").

With this, the BT_CONNECT2 state of ACL hci_conn objects should now be
back to meaning only one thing: That we received a connection request
from another device (see hci_conn_request_evt), but the actual connect
should be deferred.

Please take a special look at this one: I'm not sure if I'm breaking the
functionality of deferred connecting using BT_CONNECT2 in
hci_conn_request_evt() here, as I don't see anywhere where we check for
this state and establish a connection later.

It seems that this is how hci_conn_request_evt() was initially written
though, hci_conn_check_pending() only got introduced later and seems
unrelated.

Ahh nevermind... The check for BT_CONNECT2 on "Conn Complete event" got
introduced with 4c67bc74f01 ([Bluetooth] Support concurrent connect
requests). And later the deferred connection setup on "Conn Request
event" got introduced with 20714bfef8 ("Bluetooth: Implement deferred
sco socket setup").

I assume the latter commit was relying on the "Create Connection"
request "Conn Complete event" that got introduced with the former commit
then? That would imply that we use BT_CONNECT2 if there's already a
"Create Connection" going on when the "Conn Request event" happens, and
we must wait for that existing request to finish.. Is that how those
deferred connections are supposed to work?

Well if you are not sure that works we better make sure we have tests
that cover this, for LE I know for sure it works because we have the
likes of iso-tester that do connect 2 peers simultaneously, but for
classic I don't recall having any test that does multiple connections.

The sequential "Create Connection" logic works, I tested that (of course I'm happy to add tests if it's not too much work).

What I'm unsure about is if and how incoming connection requests from other devices with HCI_PROTO_DEFER flag are supposed to work and whether they are meant to trigger a "Create Connection" from us?
