BLE Gatt Client (and others?) doesn't build for NRF52840_DK on Mbed OS 5.15.3

[ifyall]

The BLE Gatt Client example is failing at the link step due to functions being missing in the final image. See the error messages below.

@ifyall Is it still an issue ? What version of the examples where you using and how did you compiled them ?

[paul-szczepanek-arm]

Since the examples have been overhauled since, I'm closing this. If you're still having issues with the current version @ifyall please reopen.
