- GCM operation in mbedtls used ECB, which calculated only 16 bytes of data each time.
- Therefore, when processing a large amount of data, it is necessary to frequently set hardware acceleration calculations,
- which could not make good use of the AES DMA function to improve efficiency.
- Hence, GCM implementation is replaced with CTR-based calculation which utilizes AES DMA to improve efficiency.
All the partition handling API functions and data-types were moved from the 'spi_flash' component to the new one named 'esp_partition'. See Storage 5.x migration guide for more details
Before `test_apps` migration, we had an independent release config,
but we can safely enable it in the default configuration for ESP32
target itself. This helps to catch any potential issues that may
occur in relevant tests because of compiler optimization flags.
