Because address space is mapped in 64KB pages, it was possible for unauthenticated data after the
app .bin to become mapped into the flash cache address space.
This problem is solved by 2 changes:
* "esptool elf2image --secure-pad" will pad the image so that the signature block ends close to the
64KB boundary. Due to alignment constraints it will be 12 bytes too short after signing (but
with flash encryption, these 12 bytes are still encrypted as part of the last block and can't be
arbitrarily changed).
* By default, secure boot now requires all app partitions to be a multiple of 64KB in size.
Allows you to move the partition table, it gives more space for the bootloader.
Added a new utility - parttool.py. This utility can search for the offset and/or size of the partitions by name and type/subtype. Use for getting APP_OFFSET and PHY_DATA_OFFSET.
The linker(esp32.bootloader.ld) made changes that allow you to write a custom bootloader code more.

Added feature:
- reset firmware to Factory app.(by long pressing of the button)
- boot Test app. (by long pressing of the button)
- Added feature erase data partitions from factory reset.

Refactor IDF "project" functionality under a wrapping of the default
"project" command, so we can tweak it a bit...
Will need more testing in other environments.
Need to make the bootloader modular so that users can redefine its functional part.
- refactoring and moving functions to the bootloader_support component
- Changed function to `void` bootloader_utility_load_image(...);

This commit adds support for CPU max freqeuency rating
bits in CPU. Bootloader will now print an error if attempting
to 160MHz rated ESP32 at 240MHz.
EFUSE_CHIP_VER_RESERVE has been replaced by the
frequency rating bits. Dependancies on EFUSE_CHIP_VER_RESERVE
have been changed to use EFUSE_CHIP_VER_PKG
Since 9a8c0392, XTAL frequency is set to 40MHz by default, and users
of 26MHz boards need to select 26MHz manually. Most users are not aware
of this change, and existing getting started guides do not mention that
XTAL frequency needs to be set for some boards. So users are left with
garbage output from UART without any clue what to check.
This change adds a warning in case specific XTAL frequency was set, and
it does not match automatically detected one. This should help users
fix the issue.
Fix warnings where undefined vars are used.
Make Kconfig emit "FOO=" for unset bool options
To ensure make variables are always defined, even if empty.
When writing auto.conf, include symbols disabled by dependency to make sure all make variables are always defined.
Fixesespressif/esp-idf#137
Cherry-picked from https://github.com/espressif/esp-idf/pull/138
Regression introduced in 43e231c.
Thanks to @yanbe for pointing out issue in https://github.com/espressif/esp-idf/pull/955
This is a different fix, tries to keep the behaviour that 43e231c was aiming to correct (unnecessarily testing an
invalid slot more than once.)
