Summary
Users have requested a way to make the WROVER module to boot faster.
It takes about 1 second to boot in a 4MB PSRAM configuration because of SPI RAM Test routine.
This PR adds a function to ESP32 Arduino that allows the user to programmatically tell Arduino not to spend time on PSRAM test. The default behavior is to test it.
The API is
BYPASS_SPIRAM_TEST(bool)
Example:
Impact
The user decides if SPI RAM shall be tested before starting or not. This is not forced anymore by software.
Documentation is necessary (@pedrominatel)
