esp-wifi uses global allocator, esp-alloc supports multiple regions (#2099)
* esp-wifi uses global allocator, esp-alloc supports multiple regions

* CHANGELOG.md

* Apply suggestions

* Use `alloc` when linting esp-wifi

* Make coex example build for ESP32

* Re-enable some wifi examples for ESP32-S2

* Optionally depend on `esp-alloc` (by default)

* Rename INSTANCE -> HEAP

A WiFi, BLE and ESP-NOW driver for Espressif microcontrollers.
## Current support
If a cell contains an em dash (—) this means that the particular feature is not present for a chip. A check mark (✓) means that some driver implementation exists. A Tilde (˜) means it is implemented but buggy. An empty cell means that the feature is present in the chip but not implemented yet.

Minimum supported Rust compiler version: 1.72.0.0
## Usage
### Importing
Ensure that the right features are enabled for your chip. See [Examples](https://github.com/esp-rs/esp-hal/tree/main/examples#examples) for more examples.
```toml
[dependencies.esp-wifi]
# A supported chip needs to be specified, as well as specific use-case features
features = ["esp32s3", "wifi", "esp-now"]
```
### Link configuration
Make sure to include the rom functions for your target:
```toml
# .cargo/config.toml
rustflags = [
"-C", "link-arg=-Tlinkall.x",
"-C", "link-arg=-Trom_functions.x",
]
```
At the time of writing, you will already have the `linkall` flag if you used `cargo generate`. Generating from a template does not include the `rom_functions` flag.
### Optimization Level
It is necessary to build with optimization level 2 or 3 since otherwise, it might not even be able to connect or advertise.
To make it work also for your debug builds add this to your `Cargo.toml`
```toml
[profile.dev.package.esp-wifi]
opt-level = 3
```
### Xtensa considerations
Within this crate, `CCOMPARE0` CPU timer is used for timing, ensure that in your application you are not using this CPU timer.
## USB-SERIAL-JTAG
When using USB-SERIAL-JTAG (for example by selecting `jtag-serial` in [`esp-println`](https://crates.io/crates/esp-println)) you have to activate the feature `phy-enable-usb`.
Don't use this feature if you are _not_ using USB-SERIAL-JTAG as it might reduce WiFi performance.
## Tuning
The defaults used by `esp-wifi` and the examples are rather conservative. It is possible to change a few of the important settings.
See [Tuning](./tuning.md) for details
## Missing / To be done
- Support for non-open SoftAP
## Directory Structure
- `src/timer/`: systimer code used for timing and task switching
- `src/preemt/`: a bare minimum RISCV and Xtensa round-robin task scheduler
- `src/compat/`: code needed to emulate enough of an (RT)OS to use the driver
- `common.rs`: basics like semaphores and recursive mutexes
- `timer_compat.rs`: code to emulate timer related functionality
- `examples/*.rs`: examples
## Driver version
This uses the WiFi drivers from https://github.com/esp-rs/esp-wireless-drivers-3rdparty
