Feature Request: Make autoConnect parameter configurable in connectGatt

[quasarsuport-del]

First of all, thank you for your work on the able-recipe library — it's been very helpful!

I’d like to suggest a small improvement to increase the flexibility of the connectGatt method. Currently, the method includes a hardcoded value for the autoConnect parameter:

public void connectGatt(BluetoothDevice device) {
    Log.d(TAG, "connectGatt");
    if (mBluetoothGatt == null) {
        mBluetoothGatt = device.connectGatt(mContext, false, mGattCallback, BluetoothDevice.TRANSPORT_LE);
    } else {
        Log.d(TAG, "BluetoothGatt object exists, use either closeGatt() to close Gatt or BluetoothGatt.connect() to re-connect");
    }
}

device.connectGatt(mContext, false, mGattCallback, BluetoothDevice.TRANSPORT_LE)
In this case, the autoConnect parameter is always set to false. This limits the ability to automatically connect to a device once it becomes available.
Could you consider modifying the library so that the autoConnect value can be passed dynamically (e.g., as a parameter or configuration option)? This would allow developers to choose between direct and automatic connections based on their use case.

Thanks in advance for considering this improvement!

Thank you for the contribution, @quasarsuport-del - glad to hear that the library has been helpful!
This would be a nice improvement. I will check it out and plan to include it soon.

@quasarsuport-del Thanks! Auto-connect was added in 1.0.16:

# Connects directly (default) or with background auto-reconnect
able.BluetoothDispatcher.connect_by_device_address(address: str, autoconnect: bool = False)
able.BluetoothDispatcher.connect_gatt(device: BluetoothDevice, autoconnect: bool = False)

Thanks for the quick library change. Good job!
