Wear levelling example

This example demonstrates how to use wear levelling library and FATFS library to store files in a partition inside SPI flash. Example does the following steps:

1. Use an "all-in-one" esp_vfs_fat_spiflash_mount function to:
   • find a partition in SPI flash,
   • initialize wear levelling library using this partition
   • mount FAT filesystem using FATFS library (and format the filesystem, if the filesystem can not be mounted),
   • register FAT filesystem in VFS, enabling C standard library and POSIX functions to be used.
2. Create a file using fopen and write to it using fprintf.
3. Open file for reading, read back the line, and print it to the terminal.

Here is an typical example console output.
