Fix ci build with esp32s2 boards

[hathach]

• esp32s2 boards have been taking ages to build, this is fixed by enable shell=True in popen. ci built with this PR https://github.com/adafruit/Adafruit_TinyUSB_Arduino/runs/3744226543?check_suite_focus=true#step:6:33
• also print the installed core version for troubleshooting purpose

SWITCHING TO esp32:esp32:adafruit_metro_esp32s2
Installing esp32:esp32 ✓
esp32:esp32 2.0.0     2.0.0  esp32

• change the input compile input to folderpath i.e example directory instead of path to .ino file. Since it is the preferred input of arduino-cli

$ arduino-cli compile --help
Compiles Arduino sketches.

Usage:
  arduino-cli compile [flags]

Examples:
  arduino-cli compile -b arduino:avr:uno /home/user/Arduino/MySketch
  arduino-cli compile -b arduino:avr:uno --build-property "build.extra_flags=\"-DMY_DEFINE=\"hello world\"\"" /home/user/Arduino/MySketch
  arduino-cli compile -b arduino:avr:uno --build-property "build.extra_flags=-DPIN=2 \"-DMY_DEFINE=\"hello world\"\"" /home/user/Arduino/MySketch
  arduino-cli compile -b arduino:avr:uno --build-property build.extra_flags=-DPIN=2 --build-property "compiler.cpp.extra_flags=\"-DSSID=\"hello world\"\"" /home/user/Arduino/MySketch

@ladyada def test_examples_in_learningrepo(folderpath): isn't got updated, since it seems not to be used anymore. Should we remove it ?

@hathach Enabling shell=True when running a workflow that exports a UF2 seems to cause arduino-cli compileto produce a false positive where it "passes" a build, but produces no build artifacts.

[ladyada]

@brentru im workin on this right now - i was getting false positives!

@brentru ok try now, took me a few tries to figure it out

[hathach]

@brentru @ladyada seem like shell=True mess up with the command input and I am fooled to think false positive getting the esp32s2 passed. Sorry for the issue, was so desperate trying to get esp32s2 to build. I will other way to get esp32s2 build later on. Thanks Limor for fixing it.

[ladyada]

haha its ok - you can uncomment the print-outs when you work on it next, i think it can be made to work

[brentru]

@hathach Were S2 builds just taking a long time, or never completing?

@hathach Were S2 builds just taking a long time, or never completing?

It never complete before, now it got time out (60 seconds), I tried with 600 seconds, still time out. So I guess it won't ever complete. Will do more in-depth test later on.

[brentru]

@hathach Ok - I had the same behavior. The script does compile and generate a Uf2 for s2 with arduino-cli when invoked from my computer, not sure why it's running indefinitely on the CI. Ping me when you've tested it in-depth and I'll see if it passes with WipperSnapper.

@brentru sure, I will tag you to the PR, if I could mange to fix it :)
