Feature description

Hi, is there any example on how to make the WiFi Provisioning example work in esp32p4 dev kit with C6 and BLE?

Use cases

WiFi configuration on a headless device (with P4 and C6 like the P4 eval board) using QR-code and BLE.

Alternatives

No response

Additional context

We used the Wifi Provisioning example and added required component dependencies esp-hosted and esp-wifi-remote as described in the two-chip solution.

The example doesn't build because of missing symbols for wifi_provisioning (while listed in CMakeLists PRIV_REQUIRES), but I guess that wifi_provisioning would need to be wrapper around the commands that the C6 will effectively execute, and I guess it is not implemented yet, or this is not the right method.

Apparently, wifi_provisioning is deprecated in favor of the espressif/network_provisioning component, but the latter wifi_prov example doesn't have the ESP32-P4 listed in its supported targets either.

We are a small company, and this is our first ESP32 project (but we have extended experience with STM, ie this is not our first embedded project), so we can't really afford to spend ressources (spend a month or pay an expert) on that first evaluation spike.

I see on this recent issue that DPP is scheduled first, so we are wondering if WiFi provisioning using BLE is in your backlog, and when is a rough estimate on when it will be available and considered stable.

Thanks for your hard work!
