The documentation for the IDF Size tool has been relocated from the
performance section to the tools section and updated to reflect the
current refactored version of esp-idf-size.

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.
This moves all the documentation relating to using idf.py out of the build system documentation in order to declutter and more logically group the documentation.
It is now present in the tools page under IDF Frontend - idf.py.
Additionally there has been lots of rewriting and some minor fixes on the way.
