New ESP32 modules PSRAM error #111

Hi First, huge thanks for your awesome work!!! I have cloned the Odroid-GO to create a better user experience (3.2" screen, "ATARI" like joystick, and cherry-MX buttons... I used off the shelf TTGO ESP32 module, when I flushed the FW I got into an issue with the PSRAM, it is detected as 4095Mbit size which leads the emulator to crash, I found an old ESP32 module with an "old" version of the PSRAM, replaced them and it works like a charm. Seems like the SDK version used to build ver 2.8 does not handle the "new" version of PSRAM chip right. I guess if you try to assemble a new Retro ESP32 console with a newly released ESP32-Wroover module you will face the same issue. If a version with an override for the PSRAM size detection can be generated (forcing 64Mbit size) it will solve the issue. I can check it if needed. Thanks in advance and happy new year guys!!!! :-)

This is done through your version of ESP-IDF when flashing
