* Add flash for vtable destination, make it default
Add an option for placing vtables in flash to complement the existing
iram and heap options. "make flash"
Now that there is a way to change it, move to vtables in flash as default
as only users with interrupts which use vtables require the vtable to
be in RAM. For those users, if the tables are small enough they can put
them in IRAM and save heap space for their app. If not, then the vtables
can be placed in HEAP which supports much larger tables.
* Add VTable menu, FLASH as default, remove Makefile
Convert from manual "make" operated app.ld creation to runtime creation
whose options are selected from the build menu.
Use a prelink recipe to create the output app.ld file each run, without
need for any special tools.
Update the boards.txt.py script to generate this new config.
Move all exception strings to IRAM and out of both PMEM (illegal) and add
output of any assert() failinf conditions.
The exception handler may be called while the SPI interface is in a bad
state. This means no PROGMEM reads are allowed, and all data and functions
used must be in system RAM or IRAM.
Add a new helper macro, ets_printf_P(), which places a constant string in
IRAM and copies it to the stack before calling the real ets_printf().
This makes the code simpler to read as no unwieldy combinations of
ets_putc/ets_printf/... are required to output anything.
The old handler also mistakenly used PSTR() strings in some places, so
fix those with this patch as well.
Gives back ~180 bytes of heap to every sketch built as the exception handler
is always included an application.

- Fixes increased current in light sleep mode
- Fixes return value documentation for wifi_{get,set}_country
GCC places vtables in .rodata, with a mangled name of "_ZTV*." Because
these are simply address jump tables, there is no need to place them in
RAM. Instead, have the linker place them in the .text (aka IRAM) section.
This will free up a variable amount of heap space, depending on the number
of classes with virtual functions used in any particular project.

- recompile liblwip_gcc.a with new err_t definitions
- update espconn.h (function signature change, new function)
- add option to build lwip with debug-prefix-map
SHA512 module stored padding in PROGMEM, but would then pass the pointer
to padding into Update function which would do a memcpy. Use the same
approach as with SHA256, that is to copy padding to the stack first, and
then pass it to Update.
Every assert() includes a __FILE__ constant string to RODATA which
can be quite large as it includes the complete path as well as
the filename.
Move that string into PMEM, and update the postmortem to work with
either PMEM or RAM strings for dumping abort/assert/exception
information.
- update ssl_client_new signature
- add max fragment length negotiation support (hardcoded to 4096 bytes)
- build axtls with -f{function,data}-sections, ~1k less DRAM usage,
~3k less flash
