pylibfdt/libfdt.i: fix backwards compatibility of return values

When our Python functions wrap `fdt_getprop()` they return a list
containing `[*data, length]`.

In SWIG v4.2 and earlier SWIG would discard `*data` if it is NULL/None.
Causing the return value to just be `length`.

But starting in SWIG v4.3 it no longer discards `*data`. So the return
value is now `[None, length]`.

Handle this compatibility issue in libfdt.i by checking if the return
value looks like the older 4.2 return value, and casting it to the newer
style.
