Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
Especially in the context of multiple HID connections the storage of report descriptors in a single buffer is problematic.
Say if you want up to 8 connections you should have like a 4KB buffer with each device having up to a 512KB descriptor.
Then your app still need to copy those descriptors anyway as they are moved around the buffer when devices a disconnecting.
See: https://github.com/bluekitchen/btstack/issues/633#issuecomment-2414631948
On top of that the app may need to do the exact same SDP query to fetch other attributes anyway.
So being able to disable that SDP query would prevent a redundant query, see: #618
Adding documentations to hid_host_init would be great too.
Describe the solution you'd like
Do not fetch report descriptor when hid_host_init is passed a NULL pointer and/or a size of zero.
Describe alternatives you've considered
None
