Occasional "Tether connection failed" after Wi-Fi hotspot is created.

Project Member Reported by lesliewatkins@chromium.org, Sep 13 2017

Issue description

What steps will reproduce the problem?
This seems to happen unpredictably, so this report describes only one instance of the issue occuring.

In this case...
(1) Triggered a crash on the client during an active Tether connection. The Tether connection was lost, but the Wi-Fi hotspot wasn't disabled on the host. This is expected.
(2) Attempted to re-connect to the Tether network.

What is the expected result?
Successfully re-connect to the Tether network.

What happens instead?
Connection fails. Wi-Fi hotspot is still active on the host.

Talked to Leslie offline, and this is expected functionality:

(1) Connect to host; host enables hotspot.
(2) Mobile data was disabled, but there was a crash, so the DisconnectTetheringRequest was never sent to the host; host hotspot remains on.
(3) Mobile data is re-enabled after the crash.
(4) Chromebook attempts a connection, but it fails due to Bluetooth flakiness; host hotspot remains on.

Besides the Bluetooth failure, everything here is WAI. Bluetooth bugs are already filed and being worked on.

Leslie, please file a new bug if you see the phone return a ConnectTetheringResponse with a successful response code and the laptop is unable to connect.
