Marking a page full does not skip it from page selection process and the
same page might get returned if there is no other page with more unused
entries. Added a check for the same while storing blobs.
Fixes: https://github.com/espressif/esp-idf/issues/2313
This change adds a check for compatibility between the nvs version
found on nvs flash and the one assumed by running code during nvs
initialization. Any mismatch is reported to the user using new error
code ESP_ERR_NVS_NEW_VERSION_FOUND.
This change removes the earlier limitation of 1984 bytes for storing data-blobs.
Blobs larger than the sector size are split and stored on multiple sectors.
For this purpose, two new datatypes (multi-page index and multi-page data) are
added for entries stored in the sectors. The underlying read, write, erase and find
operations are modified to support these large blobs. The change is transparent
to users of the library and no special APIs need to be used to store these large
blobs.
Currently when page is being freed, items are individually moved from
FREEING page to ACTIVE page and erased. If power-off happens during the
process, the remaining entries are moved to ACTIVE page during recovery.
The problem with this approach is there may not be enough space on
ACTIVE page for all items if an item was partially written before
power-off and erased during recovery. This change moves all the items
from FREEING to ACTIVE page and then erased the FREEING page, If
power-off happens during the process, then ACTIVE page is erased and the
process is restarted.
* Philosophical: "explicit is better than implicit".
* Practical: Allows useful errors if invalid directories given in components as the defaults aren't
always used. Also trims the -I path from a number of components that have no actual include
directory.
* Simplifies knowing which components will be header-only and which won't
Ideally suited for generating a binary externally, containing key-value pairs specific
to device manufacturers. Utility allows creation of a binary, compatible
with NVS structure, which can be separately flashed onto a new
partition. This helps device manufacturers set different values for
different devices, e.g. serial numbers, but using a single firmaware
image.
Current code for recovery after power-off do not clean-up partially
erased items for FULL pages. If the erasure was part of modification
operation, this gets luckily cleaned-up because of duplicate detection
logic. For erase-only operation, the problem still exists. This patch
adds the recovery for FULL pages also.

When erasing a variable length item with an incorrect CRC32, the span
value of the item can not be trusted, so the item will be erased with
span = 1. Subsequent entries represent the data of the variable
length item, and these will be treated as separate items. For each
entry CRC32 is checked, the check most likely fails (because the
entry contains arbitrary data, and not a proper NVS item), and the
entry is erased. Erase function assumed that every item should be
present in cache, but it is not the case for the entries which are
just parts of item’s payload. This change allows for the item to be
not found in the hashlist, if the CRC32 check fails.
