Public API for controlling the Bluetooth Headset Service. This includes both Bluetooth Headset and Handsfree (v1.5) profiles.
BluetoothHeadset is a proxy object for controlling the Bluetooth Headset Service via IPC.
Use BluetoothAdapter.getProfileProxy to get the BluetoothHeadset proxy object. Use
 BluetoothAdapter.closeProfileProxy to close the service connection.
 
Android only supports one connected Bluetooth Headset at a time. Each method is protected with its appropriate permission.
