BREAKING CHANGES -- Moved ANCS to its own repository

Main Changes:

• ANCS (Apple Notification Center Service) now has its own repository, Adafruit_CircuitPython_BLE_Apple_Notification_Center
• Magic Light also has its own repository, Adafruit_CircuitPython_BLE_Magic_Light
• Apple Media Service (previously unimplemented) was also moved to its own repository, Adafruit_CircuitPython_BLE_Apple_Media

Other changes:

• Repository was migrated from Travis to GitHub Actions
• Bug fixes

Fix ANCS example

Changes in how advertising was done in CircuitPython caused this to fail. This fixes the problem.

For CircuitPython 5.0.0-beta.0 and later

This release is an extensive rewrite. It is compatible with CircuitPython 5.0.0-beta.0 and later. It is being released as a regular release, not as a pre-release.

This release is not compatible with CircuitPython 4.1.0. For 4.1.0, use release 1.0.2 of this library. Due to current limitations in our library bundle packaging, the 4.x library bundle will contain this release, not the 1.0.2 release.

• Match _bleio changes in CircuitPython 5.0.0-beta.0.
• Define BLE services declaratively, so that they may be used either on the client or server side of the connection.
• Rework advertising packet construction.
• Update examples for new API, and add some new examples.
• Do a CircuitPython version check to ensure compatibility.
