esp32: make time monotonic across resets
Small changes to clock calibration value will cause increasing errors the longer the device runs. Consider the case of deep sleep, assuming that RTC counter is used for timekeeping: - before sleep: time_before = rtc_counter * calibration_val - after sleep: time_after = (rtc_counter + sleep_count) * (calibration_val + epsilon) where 'epsilon' is a small estimation error of 'calibration_val'. The apparent sleep duration thus will be: time_after - time_before = sleep_count * (calibration_val + epsilon) + rtc_counter * epsilon Second term on the right hand side is the error in time difference estimation, it is proportional to the total system runtime (rtc_counter). To avoid this issue, this change makes RTC_SLOW_CLK calibration value persistent across restarts. This allows the calibration value update to be preformed, while keeping time after update same as before the update.
