Tools: Add "idf.py save-defconfig" command to generate sdkconfig.defaults based on current sdkconfig
Closes IDF-2970
See merge request espressif/esp-idf!16409
COMPONENT_DIRS and EXTRA_COMPONENT_DIRS should be defined as CMake
lists, using 'set' or 'list' commands. Some applications written
for earlier versions of ESP-IDF used to define these variables as
space separated strings.
For example, the following is correct:
set(EXTRA_COMPONENT_DIRS path/to/components path/to/more/components)
The following is not correct:
set(EXTRA_COMPONENT_DIRS "${EXTRA_COMPONENT_DIRS} component1")
set(EXTRA_COMPONENT_DIRS "${EXTRA_COMPONENT_DIRS} component2")
The string "component1 component2" may indicate a single directory
name with a space, or two directory names separated by space.
However due to the fact that such way of defining EXTRA_COMPONENT_DIRS
was supported in IDF 4.3 and earlier, we need to provide backward
compatibility for it.
This commit introduces a new script, split_paths_by_spaces.py, which
is invoked if EXTRA_COMPONENT_DIRS or COMPONENT_DIRS variable contains
spaces. The script tries to determine if each space should be
interpreted as a separator or as part of the directory name.
When this cannot be done unambiguously, the script reports an error.
In all cases when space separators are detected, the script reports
a warning, and prints instructions for fixing the CMakeLists.txt.
Breaking change in this commit: specifying non-existent directories
in COMPONENT_DIRS or EXTRA_COMPONENT_DIRS is no longer allowed.
New —-list-separator argument of confgen.py and
prepare_kconfig_files.py is used to select which character is used
as list separator. For compatibility with esp-docs, we still keep
support for space separator. Otherwise esp-docs would have to choose
the separator depending on the IDF version.
It can be used in component CMakeLists.txt files when adding "weak"
dependencies between component. A "weak" dependency from A to B is
similar to target_link_libraries(A PRIVATE B), but it gets added only
if B is included in the build.
Use it instead of specifying B as part of PRIV_REQUIRES when the
component can be built (even if with reduced functionality) without
component B being available.
These optional feature produces a graphviz file showing component
dependencies. It is useful for debugging reasons why certain
components got added to the build.
Defining CMake variables from the command-line or from another CMake project,
such as `-DCMAKE_C_FLAGS= -DCMAKE_CXX_FLAGS=`, caused a link failure as ESP
CMake was unable to set its proper compilation flags.
Additional CMake compiler flags can now be provided by another project.

This feature was added when we thought that target components might be
added out of IDF tree. That never became possible, and with recent
changes in IDF architecture it is unlikely that this feature will be
necessary any time soon. Remove it, simplifying the code.
This is an experimental feature intended at the moment for ESP-IDF
developers only.
If IDF_TOOLCHAIN=clang environment variable or CMake variable is set,
use toolchain-clang-esp32xx.cmake instead of toolchain-esp32xx.cmake.
These changes aren't sufficient to actually build any IDF project with
clang; subsequent commits add a few workarounds required to do this.
Toolchain files are added for esp32 and esp32s2, which are the targets
supported in our llvm-project fork at the moment.
