The short version

What changed, and why it matters

This commit adds a new software switch that lets the device turn its Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) radio on or off from the driver level. It is a feature addition, not a fix for an existing bug. The change introduces guards so that when BLE is disabled, the driver refuses to process incoming BLE data, send data, enter pairing, or switch the radio on. There is no evidence in the commit that this is a security patch or that it addresses a known vulnerability.

Recommended action

Treat as a routine feature commit. Review whether the new `set_enabled` MicroPython binding is reachable only by authorized code, since an attacker who can already run Python code on the device could use it to disable BLE. No immediate security response is indicated by the commit itself.
