Fix dualcore startup
This MR includes:
- a workaround for a hardware bug with cache initialization
- fix of `#if CONFIG_WIFI_ENABLED` block in cpu_start.c for the case when WiFi is disabled.
- removal of miscellaneous delays in cpu_start.c

fix DRAM_ATTR attribute
Variables marked with DRAM_ATTR were not placed in any specific section and were appended to the last section, causing some errors at binary file generation stage.
This change places contents of .dram1 section into .dram0.data.
Also removes .iram1pro/.iram1app/.dram1pro/.dram1app which weren't used anywhere.

Make: fix incremental builds, add build tests
Four semi-related build changes in one:
* Add basic tests for make system sanity (can be expanded as we find corner cases)
* Fix incremental building of bootloader when source files change
* Don't regenerate component libraries or re-link the ELF file if nothing changed
* Rename `$(vecho)` to `$(summary)` and add a new `$(details)` macro to echo some helpful build details when V=1.

Add symbol needed for OpenOCD to detect FreeRTOS, add feature to break execution, try 2
Add symbol needed for OpenOCD to detect FreeRTOS, add optional feature to break execution when the scheduler is initially started. The workflow is now so that if you start an esp-idf program, you can reset the CPU and end up in a gdb prompt just before all threads start up. In gdb you can then inspect all threads and watch breakpoints. Has the nice side effect that OpenOCD will restore any break/watchpoints that were there before you reset the chip.
This is try 2 because seemingly, someone or something replaced the bit of my brain that is responsible for handling Git with a squeaky toy.

This is a workaround for a hardware bug with cache initialization.
Only two lines of code related to DPORT_APP_CACHE_MMU_IA_CLR were added around mmu_init(1); call,
and two lines at the end of comment block.
I reformatted surrounding lines to use spaces for indentation, like the rest of the code in this file does.
This change removes various delays in PRO and APP CPU startup paths.
Also some unused code and ets_printf statements are cleaned up or removed.
2nd CPU now communicates that it has started through a global variable.
The thread-local-storage feature in FreeRTOS attaches an application-usable array of pointers to a thread control block. These pointers usually point to a structure the thread allocates. When a thread gets (voluntarily or involuntarily) destroyed, this memory can leak. This merge adds a matching second array of user-settable pointers to destructor routines. As soon as the task gets cleaned up (which happens in the idle thread), the destructors get called and the memory can be freed.

Fix for noninteractive builds
This MR fixes the case when new Kconfig configuration options were added
and you run `make menuconfig`. Previously this would first show console
prompt to set values for new options, and then launch menuconfig.
Now this will just launch menuconfig. New items are marked as `(NEW)`.
New target is added, defconfig, which may be useful for non-interactive
environments to set default values for all new configuration options.
Gitlab CI uses `make defconfig` to update sdkconfig in case any new
options were added in ESP-IDF.

Currently this is mostly a verbatim copy of macOS guide with some obvious changes.
Exact lists of dependencies for Debian and Arch need to be specified.
Also made minor fixes to Windows and macOS guides:
- changed http urls to https
- added --prefix=$PWD to crosstool-NG's configure
- added chmod u+w for the build output directory
In general, except for prerequisites, Linux and macOS guides are virtually identical.
It might make sense to refactor this into single document with prerequisites being
described in separate docs.
