esp32 IDF 5.3.1 example SoftAP_STA can't work (IDFGH-14197)

[MATACE]

Answers checklist.

• I have read the documentation ESP-IDF Programming Guide and the issue is not addressed there.
• I have updated my IDF branch (master or release) to the latest version and checked that the issue is present there.
• I have searched the issue tracker for a similar issue and not found a similar issue.

General issue report

The SoftAP_STA can't work in the IDF 5.3.1, but it can work in the IDF 5.2.1，I've checked it.I was in the process of migrating my project from IDF5.2.1 to 5.3.1 and discovered this issue.
