Implements support for system level traces compatible with SEGGER
SystemView tool on top of ESP32 application tracing module.
That kind of traces can help to analyse program's behaviour.
SystemView can show timeline of tasks/ISRs execution, context switches,
statistics related to the CPUs' load distribution etc.
Also this commit adds useful feature to ESP32 application tracing module:
- Trace data buffering is implemented to handle temporary peaks of events load
Make internal stack size variables in FreeRTOS 32-bit instead of 16-bit
Stock FreeRTOS uses an uint16 to store stack sizes, making it impossible to allocate a stack >64K. This changes this into an uint32, allowing for larger stacks.

- Implements application tracing module which allows to send arbitrary
data to host over JTAG. This feature is useful for analyzing
program modules behavior, dumping run-time application data etc.
- Implements printf-like logging functions on top of apptrace module.
This feature is a kind of semihosted printf functionality with lower
overhead and impact on system behaviour as compared to standard printf.
1. add a macro in menuconfig for users to choose whether store phy calibration data into NVS or not.
2. rename some disable phy and rf APIs so that existing code which calls old APIS will fail to compile.
1. Add disable PHY and RF when WiFi and BT are both disabled(including call sniffer disable API).
2. Do not init PHY and RF when cpu start. Init PHY and RF when call Wifi or BT start APIs(including sniffer enable API).
3. Add a temporary lib: librtc_clk.a and will delete it when CPU frequency switching function is done.
4. Add an function to get OS tick rate.
5. Do not put the whole pp.a in iram0, only put lmac.o, ieee80211_misc.o, ets_time.o and wdev.o in iram0.
1. Update wifi lib which contains ampdu and other optimizations
2. Add throughput code debug code
3. Other misc modification about throughput optimization
Add cross-core int to accelerate task being awoken from another CPU.
This adds a per-CPU interrupt that can be used to poke the CPU to go do something. In this case all that is implemented is a request to yield the current task, used in case a CPU unblocks a task that runs on another CPU. This gets rid of the limitation that inter-CPU communication using queues, muxes etc can take up to a FreeRTOS tick to happen.
Specs!
Sending an in in a queue of length 1 (essentially a semaphore) as quickly as possible (just a small delay in the sender, to make sure the receiver task gets swapped out) for 10 seconds. Number indicates the amount of ints transferred
