RIOT-OS uses part of Espressif ESP8266 RTOS SDK to build support for
this CPU. The SDK includes some vendor-provided closed source
pre-compiled libraries that we need to modify to adapt to RIOT-OS
usage. This library modifications was done once and uploaded to a fork
of the vendor repository and was provided as an environment variable.
This patch changes two things:
1. It installs the SDK as a RIOT PKG from the new pkg/esp8266_sdk
directory instead of requiring the user to download it separately.
2. It performs the library modifications (symbol renames) on the pkg
Makefile removing the need to use a fork with the modifications applied
and simplifying the SDK update and future modifications.
This change sets the SDK package version (git SHA) to the same one that
our fork was using as a parent in the vendor repository, meaning that
the output libraries are exactly the same as before.
Tested with
```
ESP8266_RTOS_SDK_DIR=/dev/null USEMODULE=esp_log_startup make -C tests/shell BOARD=esp8266-esp-12x flash
```
and verified that the program works. The boot message now includes:
```
ESP8266-RTOS-SDK Version v3.1-51-g913a06a9
```
confirming the SDK version used.
`/dev/null` in the test is just to make sure that no evaluation of
`ESP8266_RTOS_SDK_DIR` in make is affected by the environment variable
value which would be set to the SDK for people who followed the set up
instructions before this change.
Tested the checkout size:
```bash
$ du -hs build/pkg/esp8266_sdk/
124M build/pkg/esp8266_sdk/
```
Checksumming flash is not supported on xtensa platform:
Warn : not implemented yet

Forward data soly based on the real source IPv6 address, not the virtual
MAC address.
ACK frames don't have a MAC address and should still be forwarded to all
nodes in range.
While this could theoretically be desired, it's usually just a mishap.
It is unlikely that legitimate cases will be needed in the build system;
if so, they can exclude themselves.

This is purely to finally unblock RIOT-OS/riotdocker#104, but may also
be useful to add future exclude patterns.

This commit fixes the generation of autoconf headers.
The `write_autoconf` function in the RIOT wrapper was overriding
the default value of the `header` arg to None in Kconfiglib's `write_autoconf`.
It's now set to the default header.
Previously, external modules had to be individually added to both
EXTERNAL_MODULE_DIRS and USEMODULE. If those where not in sync, this
resulted in build errors.
With this commit, search folders for external modules are added to
EXTERNAL_MODULE_DIRS instead. So lets say the file system structure is
like this
```
└── /path/to/external/modules
├── mod_a
│ ├── Makefile
│ ├── Makefile.dep
│ ├── Makefile.include
│ ├── foo.c
│ └── include
│ └── external_module.h
└── mod_b
├── Makefile
└── bar.c
```
One now adds `/path/to/external/modules` to EXTERNAL_MODULES and only
with `USEMODULE += mod_a` the corresponding module, dependencies and
include settings are actually used. Hence, it is possible to configure
`EXTERNAL_MODULE_DIRS` from `~/.profile` or `~/.bashrc` once and never
needs to worry about them again.
By running make compile-commands a `compile_commands.json` in the RIOT base
directory. With the environment variable `COMPILE_COMMANDS` the path of
this file can be changed to a custom location.
The `compile_commands.json` will contain the exact compile command, but
as additional flag `-I/usr/$(TARGET)/include` is added to work around
`clangd` not being able to locate the newlib system headers. The
additional includes can be overwritten using the environment variable
`COMPILE_COMMANDS_EXTRA_INCLUDES`.
There are some Linux distributions that gdb-multiarch doesn't work as
expected and debug section not start. Since AVARICE is dedicated to
AVR architecture, let's check first by the default tool then multiarch
version.

If the help is only printed on failure, if the script does not detect failure
and programming still fails, the user has no idea how to get the full information.
Always print help on how to disable this feature.
`cosy` is a graphical memory usage analyzer.
It is a great tool, but pretty hidden.
Add it as a build target so it can be easiely summoned for any application and board.
Pylint raises an error because of inconsistent return statements in the make_with_outfile function. The return value of this function is never used, so a bare return or no return is ok
Currently, when the prompt is read in `pyterm` the space after it is
ignored for the prompt and the output command just adds its own prompt.
This leads to the next output always having a leading space, see e.g.
this output from `tests/shell` using `RIOT_TERMINAL=pyterm`:
```
make: Entering directory '/home/mlenders/Repositories/RIOT-OS/RIOT2/tests/shell'
/home/mlenders/Repositories/RIOT-OS/RIOT2/dist/tools/pyterm/pyterm -p "/dev/ttyUSB1" -b "500000"

While this isn't necessarily a problem in most cases, it becomes a
problem when the prompt is expected and the output of a command is
empty. In that case, the space is added to the empty output, making it
" ", so the prompt output command is never triggered and the prompt is
added to the next command in the log output. To demonstrate I added a
command `empty` to `tests/shell` that just does nothing and deactivated
the command echoing using `CFLAGS=-DCONFIG_SHELL_NO_ECHO=1`:
```
empty
> empty
empty
bufsize

This fixes that problem by also reading the assumed space (we already
assume the prompt, so I don't see no harm in that) and if it is not a
space to skip the reading of the next char in the next iteration of the
reader loop.
The print statements from the Jlink binary offer little additional
benefit while debugging and only clutter the output. Furthermore they
interfere with the TUI layout of GDB when one of the context layouts is
used.
`git diff` creates diffs where the file name starts with `a/` or `b/`
respectively. These are obviously not in path, so the Github annotations
point to nowhere when the path is used without accounting for this.
This fixes the GH annotation parsing to account for that.
