Examples Built with MINIMAL_BUILD Property Enabled

Most of the examples in ESP-IDF are now being built with the MINIMAL_BUILD property enabled in their project CMakeLists.txt by using idf_build_set_property(MINIMAL_BUILD ON). This reduces the build time by including only the main component and its transitive dependencies.

As a side effect, only these components appear in menuconfig, as noted in the Components config menu. With MINIMAL_BUILD enabled, to make other components visible and compiled, add them as dependencies of the main component dependency or as its transitive dependencies. For more information, please see Including Components in the Build.
