[PATCH] DTC - validation by device_type

Jon,

It'd be nice to be able to validate by device_type, to ensure that we
don't reinvent the wheel (address vs. local-mac-address) and to give
embedded designers an added level of sanity checking.

Here is a proposed implementation with an implemented check for
"network".
