dist/tools/esptools: add support for installing esp8266 toolchain

Open benpicco opened this issue 1 year ago • 1 comments

Contribution description

esptools provide a handy way to quickly install the toolchain needed for the various ESP32 family members.

Installing the toolchain for the venerable esp8266 always requires looking up the right wiki page since it uses a custom toolchain that does not follow the same format.

To streamline this, add a special case for esp8266 to the install.sh script so the same script can be used to get all the Espressif toolchains.

Testing procedure

Simply run

./dist/tools/esptools/install.sh esp8266

and

./dist/tools/esptools/export.sh esp8266

I also took the opportunity to add some more output to export.sh - I think for most users it's not obvious that this an ephemerial change only.
