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.
Add a command `make erase_ota` - erases otadata if it there is in the
partition table otherwise error 'Partition table does not have ota_data partition'.
Closes https://github.com/espressif/esp-idf/issues/1821
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.

These versions of conf/mconf are forked from the upstream, and the CMake system allows mconf-idf to
be installed externally on the path. So the best option is to rename.
Includes changes to Windows installer for v1.1
With V=0, build process would print “including .../Makefile.projbuild" lines, causing problems for print_flash_cmd target.
The issue was due to the way macro expansion works in make. To delay evaluation of info function until the execution of expanded block, two dollar signs are required.
Test for print_flash_cmd target added.
Currently for checking IDF version and submodules existence,
build system uses `git` commands. But, it could be possible use-case
where `git` is not installed (assuming IDF is flattened in source format)
on system and build happens without any warnings.

Since !2190, source files located outside of the component root
produce object files inside build directory. This change fixes
handling of COMPONENT_OBJEXCLUDE variable for such files. Tests are
added.
Strips leading ../ when generating object file paths, keeps these in sync with the source files
otherwise.
This prevents object files landing in other directories, including outside the build directory, if
the component_srcdirs start with ../
We had some problems:
simultaneous compiling of kconfig in the same tree;
attempt to use menuconfig in some examples and ut in batch mode (w/o interactive console)
Also increase debug abilities in CI:
force non-interactive building;
add variable DEBUG_SHELL to toggle verbosity of scripts
