esp32s3: use TIMG0 alarm interrupt for sleepTicks

Replace the busy-wait sleepTicks with an interrupt-driven version that
sets a TIMG0 timer alarm and waits for the interrupt to fire. The timer
alarm handler disables INT_ENA at the peripheral level to prevent
level-triggered re-assertion; sleepTicks re-enables it after each wake.

This avoids burning CPU cycles during time.Sleep and similar delays.
