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.
1. add network channel switch function.
- users can obtain the new channel through the event MESH_EVENT_CHANNEL_SWITCH.
- the entire network will be moved to the same channel as the router without user intervention.
- if no router is in the network, users can call esp_mesh_switch_channel() on the root side to
move the entire network to their desired channel.
2. support not configuring the network channel.
3. support not configuring the router BSSID even if the router is hidden.
4. add allow_channel_switch to mesh configuration.
- if the channel is not specified, this value will be ignored.
- if the channel is specified and this value is set, when "fail" (mesh_attempts_t) times of parent selection
or look for networks are reached, device will change to perform a full channel scan for networks that could join.
- if the channel is specified and this value is set to 0, when a root is not elected, channel switch is not allowed.
but when a root appears, the root performs a full channel scan during the process of connecting to the router,
so even allow_channel_switch is set to 0, the root may still switch channel and eventually the entire network
changes channel.
5. add allow_router_switch to mesh router configuration.
- if the BSSID of router is not specified, this value will be ignored.
- if the BSSID of router is specified and this value is set, when the router of this specified BSSID fails to be found
after "fail" (mesh_attempts_t) times, the entire network is allowed to switch to another router with the same SSID.
6. modify the root to perform a full channel scan when esp_wifi_connect().
7. support handling beacon without DS Paramter Set.
This commit adds an option to enclose all FreeRTOS task functions within a
wrapper function. In the case that a task function returns, the wrapper function
will log an error and abort the application immediately.

Changes:
KConfig: The option CONFIG_ESP32_RTCDATA_IN_FAST_MEM is added in Kconfig file for esp32 component.
esp32.common.ld: added support of RTC_DATA_ATTR, RTC_RODATA_ATTR data placement into appropriate segment according to Kconfig option.
esp32.ld: linker script is modified to set alias for memory segment selected by Kconfig option to place data. The segments for force placement are added for RTC_FAST_ATTR, RTC_SLOW_ATTR attributes.
esp_attr.h: added new attributes RTC_FAST_ATTR, RTC_SLOW_ATTR for force placement into fest/slow memory.
test_rtc_fast.c: Added unit test cases to check data placement into appropriate memory segment.
Updated documentation for RTC_DATA_ATTR, RTC_FAST_ATTR, RTC_SLOW_ATTR in deep_sleep_stub.rst file.

The following commit rewrites the ESP-MESH docs. This commit includes
new diagrams and a structure approach to the mesh docs. Some mesh api references
have also been modified.
