Linker script generator produces build/esp32/esp32.common.ld from
components/esp32/ld/esp32.common.ld.in
This works fine until IDF is downgraded to V3.1 which uses components/esp32/ld/esp32.common.ld and
doesn't track build/esp32/esp32.common.ld at all.
At this point, the linker runs in the build/esp32 directory and "-T esp32.common.ld" picks up the
linker script generated .ld file, which causes mis-builds.

Previously, this compiler flag was not being applied
regardless of CONFIG_SPIRAM_CACHE_WORKAROUND setting.
Explanation: add_compile_options() only applies to
source files added after the function is run, or in
subdirectories added after the function is run. In
this case, no new source files were being added after
this function was run.
1. When one of the COMPONENT_DIRS points to a component directory
(i.e. a directory containing component.mk, not a directory of multiple
components), and there is a subdirectory in it which also contains
a component, the subdirectory was mistakenly added to the list of
components and compiled.
For example:
main/
component.mk
main.c
test/
component.mk
test_main.c
Would compile test_main.c and link libtest.a.
2. When one of the COMPONENT_DIRS points to a component directory, and
the parent directory contained a directory with the same name as
another component, that directory would be mistakenly added to the
COMPONENT_PATHS.
For example:
esp/
esp-idf/
esp32/
(random stuff)
mycomponent/
component.mk
mycomponent.c
myproject/
main/
Makefile
and Makefile sets EXTRA_COMPONENT_DIRS=$(realpath ../mycomponent),
then "esp32" directory which is at the same level as mycomponent
was added to COMPONENT_PATHS.
3. If EXTRA_COMPONENT_DIRS pointed to a directory with a list of
components, and one of the subdirectories was not a component, but
had the same name as another component, than that directory would be
mistakenly added to COMPONENT_PATHS instead of the real esp32
component directory.
For example:
my_components/
my_component/
component.mk
my_component.c
esp32/
(some random stuff)
and EXTRA_COMPONENT_DIRS would point to my_components/, then "esp32"
directory would be added to COMPONENT_PATHS instead of the real esp32
component directory.
When IDF_PATH is not set by the user, cmake infers the same through
other means and sets it as an environment variable. However, some
sub-invocation of cmake may not see this variable as it is not set
in the parent. This change adds a custom command for exporting IDF_PATH
just before invoking ldgen so that IDF_PATH can be used in Kconfig
without any errors.
Added a new structure esp_app_desc_t. It has info about firmware:
version, secure_version, project_name, time/date build and IDF version.
Added the ability to add a custom structure with a description of the firmware.
The esp_app_desc_t is located in fixed place in start of ROM secotor. It is located after structures esp_image_header_t and esp_image_segment_header_t.
app_version is filed from PROJECT_VER variable (if set in custom make file) or PROJECT_PATH/version.txt or git repo (git describe).
Add API to get app_desc from partition.
