Previous version used exception handling for program control flow,
which makes for long and confusing backtrace messages if an error
occurs while parsing the CSV (as it also prints the phony error that
occurred while trying to parse as a binary, then prints
"During handling of the above exception, another exception occurred:",
then prints the real error).
Use the same heuristic that is applied in gen_esp32_part, instead.
Also, avoid printing the entire backtrace if the error is a gen_esp32_part
InputError, same as gen_esp32part does.

The build system automatically determines offsets of partitions from
the partition table, so no manual changes are needed. Instead, add a
note that partition offsets may need to be updated when increasing
the bootloader size.
Do not include bootloader in flash target when secure boot is enabled.
Emit signing warning on all cases where signed apps are enabled (secure
boot and signed images)
Follow convention of capital letters for SECURE_BOOT_SIGNING_KEY variable, since it is
relevant to other components, not just bootloader.
Pass signing key and verification key via config, not requiring
bootloader to know parent app dir.
Misc. variables name corrections
This MR improves existing flash encryption document to provide simplified steps
Adds two new modes for user: Development & Release
Adds a simple example
Supports encrypted write through make command
Added:
* set a secure version in app/bootloader.
* description anti-rollback to ota part
* emulate the secure_version write and read operations
* efuse_em partition.
* a description about a rollback for native_ota_example.
Closes: TW26335
New unity component can be used for testing other applications.
Upstream version of Unity is included as a submodule.
Utilities specific to ESP-IDF unit tests (partitions, leak checking
setup/teardown functions, etc) are kept only in unit-test-app.
Kconfig options are added to allow disabling certain Unity features.
Based on report on forum here:
https://esp32.com/viewtopic.php?f=13&t=6382&p=27514
Previous versions were much more relaxed about what could be in the partition
table, erroring out avoids unexpected changes on upgrade like different
partition offsets.
Add a command `make erase_ota` - erases otadata if it there is in the
partition table otherwise error 'Partition table does not have ota_data partition'.
Closes https://github.com/espressif/esp-idf/issues/1821
Because address space is mapped in 64KB pages, it was possible for unauthenticated data after the
app .bin to become mapped into the flash cache address space.
This problem is solved by 2 changes:
* "esptool elf2image --secure-pad" will pad the image so that the signature block ends close to the
64KB boundary. Due to alignment constraints it will be 12 bytes too short after signing (but
with flash encryption, these 12 bytes are still encrypted as part of the last block and can't be
arbitrarily changed).
* By default, secure boot now requires all app partitions to be a multiple of 64KB in size.
Allows you to move the partition table, it gives more space for the bootloader.
Added a new utility - parttool.py. This utility can search for the offset and/or size of the partitions by name and type/subtype. Use for getting APP_OFFSET and PHY_DATA_OFFSET.
The linker(esp32.bootloader.ld) made changes that allow you to write a custom bootloader code more.

For config-only components, component.mk should now contain "COMPONENT_CONFIG_ONLY := 1"
Also refactored some of the generation of linker paths, library list. This required cleaning up the way the bootloader
project works, it's now mostly independent from the parent.
- change order of assert arguments to (expected, actual)
- set expected partition count to 3 to match the new partition table
- use the new get_test_partition facility
- check that partitions are listed in correct order
- remove leftover debugging printfs
Use PART_FLAG_ENCRYPTED value in gen_esp32part.py
Currently paritions marked as encrypted by gen_esp32part.py are not
recognized as such and encrypted writes don't work.

The following issues mentioned during MR!341 review were fixed:
1) Core dump test application description
2) Usage of CONFIG_ESP32_ENABLE_COREDUMP_TO_FLASH and CONFIG_ESP32_ENABLE_COREDUMP_TO_UART
3) FLASH_GUARD_START macro usage is fixed in flash API
4) Core dump module logging facility
5) cache util functions doc updated
6) interactive delay before print core dump to uart
7) core dump partion support in build system
Complimentary changes:
1) Partition table definitions files with core dump partition
2) Special sub-type for core dump partition
3) Special version of spi_flash_xxx
4) espcoredump.py is script to get core dump from flash and print useful info
5) FreeRTOS API was extended to get tasks snapshots
