Delete docs directory

Version v4.4.5

Add ESP32-S3 octal flash support

Version v4.4.4

Merge branch 'espressif:master' into Tasmota/v4

Version v4.4.3

Increase stub loader stability

Version v4.4.2

Fix: ESP32x on some Macbook fails to flash via USB C

Version v4.4.1

Tasmota (#17)


* S3 16MB fix (#4)

* fix(setup): Use latest reedsolo package which can be installed with Python3.10 and Cython

Closes https://github.com/espressif/esptool/issues/711

* feat(ci): Publish development releases with custom pipeline

* fix(ci): The development release job should not run by default

Gitlab rules:if adds the job if any of the rules are true.

* fix(ci): Merge two "ci" directories and build_tools into one

* fix(secure download mode): Fix SDM detection on S2/S3

* fix(secure download mode): Reconnect if ROM refuses to respond

Closes https://github.com/espressif/esptool/issues/813

* fix(flasher_stub): Correct boundaries for SPIWrite4B and SPIRead4B

SPIWrite4B and SPIRead4B functions are required for flash sizes bigger
than 16MB. This fix corrects the boundaries so SPIWrite and SPIRead
would be used for the whole 16MB area.

The octal flash support for 32 MB chips
(https://github.com/espressif/esptool/issues/795) will be added in a
follow-up commit.

Closes https://github.com/espressif/esptool/issues/745

Added detection for guru meditation errors induced by the flasher stub or ROM bootloader.
Added a readable error message for serial-related failures, giving more information about possible HW issues.
espsecure.py: Improved AES-XTS encryption speed. (espressif#783)
Bug Fixes
ESP32-S3 v0.0: Fixed chip revision detection.
bitstring: Added a workaround for breaking changes of bitstring==4
get_default_connected_device: Fixed to close unused serial ports.
flash_freq: Fall back to a chip-specific default flash frequency when no flash_freq arg is specified.
ESP32-C6: Fixed chip type detection and SPI flash communication.
