The size of partition of type APP should be multiple of 4 KB. Partition
generation tool now make this as a mandatory requirement. This is
minimum flash erase size. If the size of the APP type partition is not
aligned to 4 KB then the last erase operation could go beyond the allocated
partition and hence may fail. This issue would only be observed when the
firmware size grows very close to the allocated partition size, and hence
causing the OTA update to fail.
For already deployed devices on-field with the size of APP partition not
aligned to flash sector boundary, it is best to ensure that firmware
size always remains within the lower 4 KB boundary of the total
allocated space. While migrating to ESP-IDF 5.3 release, partition table
for an existing project can be adjusted accordingly for the build to
succeed.

This commit enables the standad VERSION argument for the project() macro
in ESP-IDF. The VERSION argument is compilant with the requirements of
cmake 3.16. This commit also adds new test cases for verifying the
validity of the version argument.

Previously, documentation sections that were only meant for multicore ESP
targets would use tags that depend on CONFIG_FREERTOS_UNICORE or
CONFIG_ESP_SYSTEM_SINGLE_CORE_MODE. This is not ideal as project configuration
can be changed by the user.
This commit updates those tags to use SOC_HP_CPU_HAS_MULTIPLE_CORES which is
always defined in multicore targets regardless of project configuration.
This extension allows running programs in QEMU similar to running
them on a real chip:
- 'idf.py qemu' — builds and runs the program in QEMU. User gets
a QEMU instance launched, and can work with it as a normal QEMU
instance.
- 'idf.py qemu monitor' — same, but QEMU is launched in the
background, and idf_monitor runs in the foreground, showing QEMU
output. Compared to only running 'idf.py qemu' this enables, for
example, automatic backtrace decoding.
- 'idf.py qemu gdb' — launches QEMU in the background and opens an
interactive GDB prompt, connecting it to QEMU.
- 'idf.py qemu --gdb monitor' and 'idf.py gdb' in another shell:
launches QEMU in the background, keeps it suspended until GDB is
connected, and opens idf_monitor. GDB can be used in another shell
to debug the application.
Many places in the ESP_SYSTEM are using CONFIG_FREERTOS_UNICORE instead of CONFIG_ESP_SYSTEM_SINGLE_CORE_MODE (GitHub PR)

With 8959555cee7e[1] ("setup_git_directory(): add an owner check for the top..")
git added an ownership check of the git directory and refuses to
run any git commands, even parsing the config file, if the git directory
is not owned by the current user. The "fatal: detected dubious ownership in repository"
is reported.
This fixes CVE-2022-24765[2], which allows to compromise user account. On a
multi-user system or e.g. on a shared file system, one user may create a "rogue"
git repository with e.g. core.fsmonitor set to an arbitrary command. Other user
may unwillingly execute this command by running e.g. git-diff or
git-status within the "rogue" git repository, which may be in one of the parent
directories. If e.g. PS1 is set to display information about a git
repository in CWD, as suggested in Git in Bash[3], the user do not need to run
any git command to trigger this, just entering some subdirectory under
this "rogue" git repository is enough, because the git command will be
started transparently through the script used in PS1. The core.fsmonitor
can be set to arbitrary command. It's purpose is to help git to identify changed files
and speed up the scanning for changed files.
rogue
├── .git # owned by user1
└── dir1 # owned by user2
├── dir2 # owned by user2
└── .git # owned by user2
user1 sets core.fsmonitor for git repository in rogue directory
$ git config --add core.fsmonitor "bash -c 'rm -rf \$HOME'"
user2 enters dir1 and runs e.g. git diff and triggers the core.fsmonitor command.
The ownership check may cause problems when running git commands in
ESP-IDF Docker container. For example user may run the container as
root, but the mounted project may be owned by a particular user.
In this case git will refuse to execute any git command within the
"/project" directory, because it's not owned by root. To overcome this,
git allows to set safe.directories, for which the ownership check is
skipped. The security check may be completely disabled by setting
safe.directories to "*". This solution was proposed in PR 12636[4], but
it would allow make it possible to exploit this vulnerability again.
This fix allows user to specify git's safe.directory in IDF_GIT_SAFE_DIR
environmental variable, which may be set during container startup.
The IDF_GIT_SAFE_DIR has same format as PATH and multiple directories can be
specified by using a ":" separator. To entirely disable this git security check
within the container, user may set IDF_GIT_SAFE_DIR='*'. This might be
heplfull in CI.

* Add a note that DNS server config is global in lwIP
* Add a section about defining LWIP config macros from CMake
* Mention the DNS limitation in ESP-IDF additions to lwIP

Those dependencies are always satisfied because:
- ESP-IDF supports Python 3.8+ at this moment,
- click version is checked and ensured by the install scripts.
* All components which won't build (yet) on Linux are excluded.
This enables switching to Linux in an application without
explicitly setting COMPONENTS to main in the main
CMakeLists.txt.
* ESP Timer provides headers for Linux now
* automatically disabling LWIP in Kconfig if it is not available
doc(linux): brought section
"Component Linux/Mock Support Overview" up to date
Task snapshot API were never intended to be called from user code. This commit
makes task snapshot a private API thus moves `#include "freertos/task_snapshot.h"`
to `#include "esp_private/freertos_debug.h"`.
Task snapshot related Kconfig options have also been hidden.
Note: Added 'freertos_common' mapping to ldgen mapping execptions lists due to
inlining of 'freertos_debug.h' functions.

Rather than running the command inside the container as root, which will
mean that any build artifacts created will be owned by root on the host,
run the command as the current user.
This requires setting a temporary home directory as idf.py will try to
access e.g. ~/.cache, so just use /tmp inside the container which is
ephemeral anyway.
This also allows the command to use `git`. without setting the user ID,
`docker run ... git status` will fail with
fatal: detected dubious ownership in repository at '/project'
Also added the missing explanation for `-w /project`.
