libfdt: Fix bounds-checking bug in fdt_get_property()

The libfdt functions are supposed to behave tolerably well when practical,
even if given a corrupted device tree as input.  A silly mistake in
fdt_get_property() means we're bounds checking against the size of a pointer
instead of the size of a property header, meaning we can get bogus
behaviour in a corrupted device tree where the structure block ends in
what's supposed to be the middle of a property.

This patch corrects the problem (fdt_get_property() will now return
BADSTRUCTURE in this case), and also adds a testcase to catch the bug.
