Bluetooth Passcode/Passkey/PIN

@Cipheros

Don't enable the Pairing Agent: it's convenient but allows anyone to connect if the Bluetooth Renderer is enabled.

Now you have to go through the connection process the old fashioned way.

- on the moOde player go to the BluezConfig screen and submit "SCAN for devices"

- immediately tell your Bluetooth phone to "Pair new device" (that's what it's called on my Android Pixel3a phone) or whatever it's called in your OS.

- After a period of time, your phone should show "Moode Bluetooth" (or whatever you've customized the name to be) in its list of available devices

- Pair your phone with this new device. 

-Now your phone should show up in the moOde player when you submit "LIST paired".

-In the moOde player's BluezConfig screen, CONNECT to your paired phone.

This is tedious but doesn't allow unwanted connections.

n.B. - I have a vague memory it's possible to use command line functions like bluetoothctl to accept some connections and reject others but I've used it only for accepting them and don't know the details of rejecting. Google is your friend.
