Use PSRAM to reduce heap usage percentage on ESP32 with PSRAM (#8891)

* Use PSRAM for malloc > 256bytes to get more heap memory

* Use dynamic allocator on boards with PSRAM to free more heap

* Apply suggestion from @Copilot

* Move heap_caps_malloc_extmem_enable() to the top of the init

* Update src/main.cpp
