drivers/of: validate live-tree string properties before string use

`populate_properties()` stores live-tree property values as raw byte
sequences plus a separate `length`. They are not globally guaranteed to
be NUL-terminated.

`of_prop_next_string()` iterates string-list properties by walking raw
bytes, `__of_node_is_type()` checks `device_type`,
`__of_device_is_status()` checks `status`, and
`of_alias_from_compatible()` reads the first `compatible` entry. These
paths must validate that the relevant string fits within the property
bounds before they hand it to C string helpers.

Validate these live-tree string properties within their declared bounds.
In particular, make `of_prop_next_string()` reject malformed entries
before returning them, keep the `device_type` check inside the existing
no-lock helper path, and add unit coverage for malformed first and
trailing string-list entries.
