fix(esp_system): fixes build failure with XIP PSRAM + BSS/NoInit in external memory

Declare ext_ram_xip_seg as a distinct region overlapping drom_seg at the
same origin (the esp32s3/c5/c61/h4 pattern) instead of aliasing drom_seg,
so .ext_ram.dummy has its own location counter and .ext_ram.bss reclaims
the VMA space of NOLOAD rodata (.rodata_wlog_*), saving up to one MMU
page of PSRAM on esp32s31. No layout change on esp32p4.
