Arr, preserve the configured maximum for incoming writes.

m_value = val copies the temporary value's global maximum. After the first accepted write, later writes can exceed the characteristic's configured maxLen.

Create the temporary value with the stored maximum. This shared server path covers characteristics and descriptors.

🐛 Suggested fix 
-            NimBLEAttValue buf(ctxt->om->om_data, len);
+            NimBLEAttValue buf(ctxt->om->om_data, len, maxLen);

Do not replace the assignment with setValue() alone, matey. setValue() clears the stored value before rejecting an oversized input.

Review comment at @src/NimBLECharacteristic.cpp at line 439:
Update the incoming-write path containing the m_value assignment to construct
its temporary NimBLEAttValue with the characteristic’s stored maxLen, so
assigning an accepted write preserves the configured maximum for subsequent
writes across characteristics and descriptors.
