bluetooth-wizard cannot pair with a 1byone bluetooth keyboard (or possibly, any keyboard that requires a PIN code?)

Bug Description
* Impact
some bluetooth keyboards can't be paired
* Test case
If you own a keyboard requiring a pincode for pairing try to pair it, it should work
* Regression potential
limited, it's only adding new code to a callback function which was unimplemented
-------
I'm on wily. I just got this keyboard, so I don't know if this is a regression or not with Bluez5. I'm guessing it is though.
I can pair via the console just fine (though connecting is another story -- bug 1492441):
$ bluetoothctl

[bluetooth]# agent on

[bluetooth]# default-agent

[bluetooth]# pair 08:73:00:13:CC:45

[CHG] Device 08:73:00:13:CC:45 Paired: yes
Pairing successful
[CHG] Device 08:73:00:13:CC:45 Connected: no
But when using bluetooth-wizard, none of the "PIN options" options work for me. I expected to be prompted to enter a random PIN code like I do when connecting it to my iPad or when connecting via the console above. But it just spins for a while and says that pairing failed.
