Subject: [PATCH v8 1/2] Bluetooth: add quirk disabling LE Read Transmit Power

From: Aditya Garg <gargaditya08@...e.com>

Some devices have a bug causing them to not work if they query 
LE tx power on startup. Thus we add a quirk in order to not query it 
and default min/max tx power values to HCI_TX_POWER_INVALID.
