dtc: dt-check-style: Allow space-aligning indentation in DTS
DTS often have spaces after tabs in indentation for aligning continued
lines of comments or list properties, thus allow such cases to avoid
many false positives. What we can easily detect is a space followed by
tab or too many spaces (more than alignment).
OTOH, DTS example in YAML files does not have tabs at all and there is
already rule for that, thus there is no point to check for mixed
indentation there.
