Entering a bootloader (ST system bootloader, or custom mboot) from software
by directly branching to it is not reliable, and the reliability of it
working can depend on the peripherals that were enabled by the application
code. It's also not possible to branch to a bootloader if the WDT is
enabled (unless the bootloader has specific provisions to feed the WDT).
This patch changes the way a bootloader is entered from software by first
doing a complete system reset, then branching to the desired bootloader
early on in the start-up process. The top two words of RAM (of the stack)
are reserved to store flags indicating that the bootloader should be
entered after a reset.
WIFI_REASON_AUTH_FAIL does not necessarily mean the password is wrong, and
a wrong password may not lead to a WIFI_REASON_AUTH_FAIL error code. So to
improve reliability connecting to a WLAN always reconnect regardless of the
error.
These s16-s21 registers are used by gcc so need to be saved. Future
versions of gcc (beyond v9.1.0), or other compilers, may eventually need
additional registers saved/restored.

This updates ESP IDF to use v3.3-beta3. And also adjusts README.md to
point to stable docs which provide a link to download the correct toolchain
for this IDF version, namely 1.22.0-80-g6c4433a-5.2.0
Previously the end of the heap was the start (lowest address) of the stack.
With the changes in this commit these addresses are now independent,
allowing a board to place the heap and stack in separate locations.
With this the user can select multiple logical units to expose over USB MSC
at once, eg: pyb.usb_mode('VCP+MSC', msc=(pyb.Flash(), pyb.SDCard())). The
default behaviour is the original behaviour of just one unit at a time.
Eventually these responses could be filled in by a function to make their
contents dynamic, depending on the attached logical units. But for now
they are fixed, and this patch fixes the MODE SENSE(6) responses so it is
the correct length with the correct header.
SCSI can support multiple logical units over the one interface (in this
case over USBD MSC) and here the MSC code is reworked to support this
feature. At this point only one LU is used and the behaviour is mostly
unchanged from before, except the INQUIRY result is different (it will
report "Flash" for both flash and SD card).
Previously, when linking qstr objects in native code for ARM Thumb, the
index into the machine code was being incremented by 4, not 8. It should
be 8 to account for the size of the two machine instructions movw and movt.
This patch makes sure the index into the machine code is incremented by the
correct amount for all variations of qstr linking.
See issue #4829.
To use it a board should define MICROPY_PY_USSL=1 and MICROPY_SSL_MBEDTLS=1
at the Makefile level. With the provided configuration it adds about 64k
to the build.
