This commit updates the ADC to use the new driver `esp_adc/adc_oneshot.h`. There are several errata notes about not being able to change the bit-width of the ADCs certain chips. The only chip that can switch resolution to a lower one is the normal ESP32. ESP32 C2 and S3 are stuck at 12 bits, while S2 is at 13 bits. On the S2, you can change the resolution, but it has no effect on the resolution, rather, it prevents attenuation from working at all! The resolution is set to the maximum possible for each SoC, with the ESP32 being the only one not throwing errors when trying to set the bit-width to 9, 10, 11 or 12 bits using `ADC.width(bits)`.

Summary
This is a complementary PR to #16521, focusing only on ADC, updating it to fix an issue with the RISCV adc function causing a conflict of drivers mentioned in #16469
There are several errata notes about not being able to change the bit-width of the ADCs certain chips.
The only chip that can switch resolution to a lower one is the normal esp32.
esp32 C2 & S3 are stuck at 12 bits, while S2 is at 13 bits.
On the S2, you can change the resolution, but it has no effect on the resolution, rather, it prevents attenuation from working at all!
I have set the resolution to the be maximum possible for each SoC, with the esp32 being the only one not throwing errors when trying to set the bit-width to 9,10,11 or 12 bits using ADC.width(bits)
Testing
I have built and flashed the following variants: Generic, S2, S3, C3
The ADC behaves correctly as expected, with readings following the position of a 10K potentiometer.
Attenuation works too where values above the maximum range get clipped and readings stay at the maximum attenuated level:
