There was a problem hiding this comment.
I've elected to not use the esp-hal config here - the more we have, the more tightly the crates are coupled. Since the stack-guard-* options are currently unstable, we really shouldn't rely on them in esp-rtos at all (we risk breaking compatibility in the future).
While the stack protector is in the process of getting stabilised, it isn't stable yet.

This causes the transmission of frames to become unreliable, because the `transmit_async` operation does not return any error codes if a transmission was aborted. Additionally, the TWAI controller is designed to be a reliable and, with the exception of the bus-off state, normally would simply try to rentransmit a message on its own. Therefore, this commit removes transmission abortion on errors and, instead, only aborts a transmission if the controller changes into the bus-off state.

This PR reuses the results from #4207. Task stacks are now watched by the main task stack watchpoint. The software-based method has been disabled by default.
An unintended, but welcome consequence is that the scheduler is slightly faster without the software-based detection, if there is only a single thread to work with. This slightly improves performance of embassy when esp-radio (and thus, extra threads) is not present.
