Update to ESP IDF 5.5.3

This also fixes the Python requirements problem by setting the constraint file for espressif builds.

Thanks, definitely worth doing!

Between PR10839 and this one PR10840 my Adafruit QT Py ESP32-S3 4MB Flash 2MB PSRAM resets after loading the uf2 with repeating 5 sets of blue blinking lights and the following looping output on USB serial. And then pressing the boot button gets it to crash to safe mode. This continues to the current main PR10847.

If I press the boot button a few times it comes up in safe mode:

Auto-reload is off.
Running in safe mode! Not running saved code.

You are in safe mode because:
CircuitPython core code crashed hard. Whoops!
Hard fault: memory access or instruction error.
Please file an issue with your program at github.com/adafruit/circuitpython/issues.
Press reset to exit safe mode.

Press any key to enter the REPL. Use CTRL-D to reload.

This is likely this bug: #10849

I'm going to look into it shortly.
