Hello,

Description:
When I scan for new devices, bluetoothctl will show all the devices it can see, which is great, but after I pick the one I want, it will also save all the other ones. I live in an apartment complex, so my list of devices can get pretty ugly.

It's been the case for quite a while so I don't know when it started to be like this.


Additional info:
* package version(s) Kernel 4.20.2, bluez 5.50, bluedevil 5.14.5 but it's been the case for a long time.
* config and/or log files etc.


Steps to reproduce:
1. Scan for new devices
2. See that it saved everything found



Thank you!
This task depends upon

Reason for closing:  Not a bug
Additional comments about closing:  OP request: bluez-utils will actually auto-clean that after a while, I never let it be long enough to realize this.
