Simple snap to autostart bluetooth at boot

WHY?

Using Ubuntu Core devices it is not always possible to access via SSH and bluez usually doesn't start up the bluetooth at boot.

USAGE

  1 - install bluez to allow bluetooth usage:
     "sudo snap install bluez"
  2 - check dongle compatibility
     "sudo bluez.hciconfig"
     the log must show up the HCI devices with their state
  3 - install bluetooth autosatart 
     "sudo snap install bluetooth-autostart"
  4- connect if needed the proper interface:
      "sudo snap connect bluetooth-autostart:bluetooth-control" 

Post any trouble using GitHub: https://github.com/mauringo/autostart-bluetooth-snap

basically this app runs the "hcicconfig hci0 up" command. The command is executed with 5s delay thus, any other process that needs bluetooth must use it after 5s.
