sync (if exist) or start scanning and sync to the periodic advertising with the provided broadcast
ID before syncing to the BIG.

advertising with the provided broadcast name before syncing to the BIG.
uart:~$ bap init

Syncing to encrypted broadcast
If the broadcast is encrypted, the broadcast code can be entered with the bap sync_broadcast
command as such:
Sink 0x20019110 is ready to sync with encryption
uart:~$ bap sync_broadcast 0x01 bcode 0102030405060708090a0b0c0d0e0f
The broadcast code can be 1-16 values, either as a string or a hexadecimal value.
Sink 0x20019110 is ready to sync with encryption
uart:~$ bap sync_broadcast 0x01 bcode_str thisismycode
Stop and release a broadcast sink stream:
uart:~$ bap stop_broadcast_sink
uart:~$ bap term_broadcast_sink

The preset command can be used to either print the default preset
configuration or set a different one, it is worth noting that it doesn’t change
any stream previously configured.

Configure preset
The bap preset command can also be used to configure the preset used for the subsequent
commands. It is possible to add or set (or reset) any value. To reset the preset, the command can simply be run without the config or meta parameter. The parameters are using the
assigned numbers values.
