Feature Request: local project user_settings.h for no-setup Espressif

[gojimmypi]

Version

Latest master branch

Description

PR# 6018 introduced the capability of "no setup" wolfSSL for the Espressif ESP-IDF projects. The examples now all use this feature. The code that runs is the code that is in the project. Not only does this make wolfSSL development significantly easier, but it also makes the Getting Started experience much better by eliminating the install process that copied wolfSSL files into the ESP-IDF components directory.

In the current configuration, a single wolfssl user_settings.h is created in the root of the wolfssl clone and shared amongst all projects: "${WOLFSSL_ROOT}/include/user_settings.h".

@PaulMartinsen and @LizardM4 have both suggested having the capability of a project-specific user_settings.h file. This is a great idea! I've tested this and it seems to work just fine. The new file location would be in a new local project wolfssl/include directory.

The was implemented some time ago, and is confirmed working with wolfSSL v5.6.6-stable release for all Espressif targets.

For the barebones example, see the template user_settings.h and the respective no-setup CMakeLists.txt files.
