This updates the minimal supported version of CMake to 3.16, which in turn enables us to use more CMake features and have a cleaner build system.
This is the version that provides most new features and also the one we use in our latest docker image for CI.
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.
!4452 used setting LINK_LIBRARIES and INTERFACE_LINK_LIBRARIES to link
components built under ESP-IDF build system. However, LINK_LIBRARIES does
not produce behavior same as linking PRIVATE. This MR uses the new
signature for target_link_libraries directly instead. This also moves
setting dependencies during component registration rather than after all
components have been processed.
The consequence is that internally, components have to use the new
signature form as well. This does not affect linking the components to
external targets, such as with idf_as_lib example. This only affects
linking additional libraries to ESP-IDF libraries outside component processing (after
idf_build_process), which is not even possible for CMake<v3.13 as
target_link_libraries is not valid for targets not created in current
directory. See https://cmake.org/cmake/help/v3.13/policy/CMP0079.html#policy:CMP0079
