change(secure_boot): mark ECDSA based Secure Boot V2 as insecure on affected SoCs
ECDSA based Secure Boot V2 is not functional for certain input vectors on ESP32-C5/C61/H2/P4 and on the preview targets ESP32-H4/H21. RSA based Secure Boot V2 is the recommended scheme where the SoC supports it. This issue will be fixed in a future hardware ECO revision; more details will be shared through the hardware errata document. A new hidden Kconfig option SECURE_BOOT_V2_ECDSA_INSECURE marks the affected mass-production SoCs (ESP32-C5/C61/H2/P4). On these SoCs, when hardware Secure Boot V2 is enabled, the ECDSA (V2) signing scheme is no longer offered by default; it must be turned on explicitly via SECURE_BOOT_V2_FORCE_ENABLE_ECDSA under "Allow potentially insecure options" (CONFIG_SECURE_BOOT_INSECURE). App signing without hardware Secure Boot is not affected. Note that ESP32-C61 has no RSA based Secure Boot V2, so it has no Secure Boot scheme enabled by default. The preview targets ESP32-H4 and ESP32-H21 mark ECDSA Secure Boot V2 as not supported in their SoC capabilities instead of using the option above. As ESP32-H4 has no other Secure Boot V2 scheme, Secure Boot is disabled entirely on it; ESP32-H21 retains RSA based Secure Boot V2. The security documentation keeps the ECDSA Secure Boot V2 content visible and adds a warning describing the limitation (including that ECDSA Secure Boot V2 on ESP32-C61 is not recommended for production). CI apps that exercise ECDSA Secure Boot V2 on the affected SoCs set CONFIG_SECURE_BOOT_V2_FORCE_ENABLE_ECDSA accordingly.
