Building locally I saw this message:
```
/home/jepler/.espressif/python_env/idf4.4_py3.9_env/lib/python3.9/site-packages/setuptools_scm/integration.py:27: RuntimeWarning:
ERROR: setuptools==44.1.1 is used in combination with setuptools_scm>=6.x
Your build configuration is incomplete and previously worked by accident!
setuptools_scm requires setuptools>=45
```
For some reason this dependency is not automatically met, e.g., by
setuptools_scm specifying a versioned dependency itself! So specify
it here.
.. this setting can be overridden with a bigger or smaller value in
CIRCUITPY/.env but 1/8 of PSRAM seems like a good initial value. It's
enough to store a single 800x600 or 640x480 RGB565 frame, or multiple
smaller frames such as 320x240.
This uses the esp32-camera code instead of our own homebrewed camera code.
In theory it supports esp32, esp32-s2 and esp32-s3, as long as they have
PSRAM.
This is very basic and doesn't support changing any camera parameters,
including switching resolution or pixelformat.
This is tested on the Kaluga (ESP32-S2) and ESP32-S3-Eye boards.
First, reserve some PSRAM by putting this line in `CIRCUITPY/_env`:
```
CIRCUITPY_RESERVED_PSRAM=524288
```
and hard-reset the board for it to take effect.
Now, the following script will take a very low-resolution jpeg file and print
it in the REPL in escape coded form:
```python
import board
import esp32_camera
c = esp32_camera.Camera(
data_pins=board.CAMERA_DATA,
external_clock_pin=board.CAMERA_XCLK,
pixel_clock_pin=board.CAMERA_PCLK,
vsync_pin=board.CAMERA_VSYNC,
href_pin=board.CAMERA_HREF,
pixel_format=esp32_camera.PixelFormat.JPEG,
i2c=board.I2C(),
external_clock_frequency=20_000_000)
m = c.take()
if m is not None:
print(bytes(m))
```
Then on desktop open a python repl and run something like
```python
>>> with open("my.jpg", "wb") as f: f.write(<BIG PASTE FROM REPL>)
```
and open my.jpg in a viewer.
.. the primary user of which will be the camera, since the framebuffers
must be allocated via esp-idf allocation function and never from the
gc heap.
A board can have a default value, and the value can also be set in the
/.env file using the key CIRCUITPY_RESERVED_PSRAM with the value being
the reserved size in bytes.

The ringbuf used to fill up and the recv interrupt would block CP.
Now it'll disable the interrupt until we have enough room in the
ringbuf.
Fixes#6678
