spi: fix the crash when callbacks are not in the IRAM

Introduced in 9c23b8e5 and 4f87a62f. To get higher speed, menuconfig
options are added to put ISR and other functions into the IRAM.  The
interrupt flag ESP_INTR_FLAG_IRAM is also mistakenly set when the ISR is
put into the IRAM. However callbacks, which are wrote by the user, are
called in the master and slave ISR. The user may not be aware of that
these callbacks are not disabled during flash operations. Any cache miss
during flash operation will cause panic.

Essentially IRAM functions and intrrupt flag ESP_INTR_FLAG_IRAM are
different, the latter means not disabling the ISR during flash
operations.  New bus_config flag intr_flags is offered to help set the
interrupt attribute, including priority level, SHARED, IRAM (not
disabled during flash operations).  It introduced a small BREAK to
IDFv3.1 (but the same as IDFv3.0) that the user has to manually set IRAM
flag now (therefore he's aware of the IRAM thing) to void the ISR being
disabled during flash operations.

There're two factors limiting the transferring speed: (1) The transaction interval, (2) The SPI clock frequency used.
There're three factors limiting the transferring speed: (1) The transaction interval, (2) The SPI clock frequency used.
(3) The cache miss of SPI functions including callbacks.
When large transactions are used, the clock frequency determines the transferring speed; while the interval effects the
speed a lot if small transactions are used.

2. SPI clock frequency: Each byte transferred takes 8 times of the clock period *8/fspi*. If the clock frequency is
too high, some functions may be limited to use. See :ref:`timing_considerations`.
3. The cache miss: the default config puts only the ISR into the IRAM.
Other SPI related functions including the driver itself and the callback
may suffer from the cache miss and wait for some time while reading code
from the flash. Select :ref:`CONFIG_SPI_MASTER_IN_IRAM` to put the whole
SPI driver into IRAM, and put the entire callback(s) and its callee
functions into IRAM to prevent this.
For an interrupt transaction, the overall cost is *20+8n/Fspi[MHz]* [us] for n bytes tranferred
in one transaction. Hence the transferring speed is : *n/(20+8n/Fspi)*. Example of transferring speed under 8MHz
clock speed:

When the length of transaction is short, the cost of transaction interval is really high. Please try to squash data
into one transaction if possible to get higher transfer speed.
BTW, the ISR is disabled during flash operation by default. To keep sending
transactions during flash operations, enable
:ref:`CONFIG_SPI_MASTER_ISR_IN_IRAM` and set :cpp:class:`ESP_INTR_FLAG_IRAM`
in the ``intr_flags`` member of :cpp:class:`spi_bus_config_t`. Then all the
transactions queued before the flash operations will be handled by the ISR
continuously during flash operation. Note that the callback of each devices,
and their callee functions, should be in the IRAM in this case, or your
callback will crash due to cache miss.
