Angus Gratton 17adb40ca8 bootloader: Calculate SHA256 hash of image on every boot
Makes app image booting more reliable (256-bit rather than 8-bit verification.)

Some measurements, time to boot a 655KB app.bin file and run to app_main() execution.

(All for rev 1 silicon, ie no 340ms spurious WDT delay.)

80MHz QIO mode:
before = 300ms
after = 140ms

40MHz DIO mode:
before = 712ms
after = 577ms

40MHz DIO mode, secure boot enabled
before = 1380ms
after = 934ms

(Secure boot involves two ECC signature verifications (partition table, app) that take approx 300ms each with 80MHz CPU.)

Bootloader Support Component
============================

Overview
--------

"Bootloader support" contains APIs which are used by the bootloader but are also needed for the main app.

Code in this component needs to be aware of being executed in a bootloader environment (no RTOS available, BOOTLOADER_BUILD macro set) or in an esp-idf app environment (RTOS running, need locking support.)
