nRF Connect SDK is Nordic SDK based on zephyr with extensions targeting nordic devices like additional bluetooth services and features.

Fixes #10.

@najnesnaj please note that there is a west feature coming which will allow to inherit manifests, that will simplify a lot pinetime manifest. Now it is just a "smart" copy of ncs manifest (https://lists.zephyrproject.org/g/users/message/1867). I will soon try to provide some howto about using bluetooth shell. For now one can build nrf/samples/bluetooth/shell_bt_nus. I experimented a bit with using Linux app (BLE Console) but it requires pairing and i had some issues with reconnecting. Using cross-platform python script works nice but requires additional nrf52 board (http://developer.nordicsemi.com/nRF_Connect_SDK/doc/latest/nrf/include/shell/shell_bt_nus.html).
