drivers/of: fdt: validate flat DT string properties before string use

Firmware-supplied flat DT properties are raw byte sequences. Several
early FDT helpers fetch properties such as status, model, compatible,
and device_type and then use them as C strings with strcmp(), strlen(),
or pr_info() without first proving that the property is NUL-terminated
within its declared length.

Use fdt_stringlist_get() for these string properties instead. That
preserves the existing behavior for valid DTBs while rejecting malformed
unterminated properties before they are passed to C string helpers.
