libfdt: Fix handling of trailing / in fdt_path_offset()

[David Gibson]

Currently, fdt_path_offset() returns FDL_ERR_BADOFFSET if given a path
with a trailing '/'.  In particular this means that
fdt_path_offset("/") returns FDT_ERR_BADOFFSET rather than 0 as one
would expect.

This patch fixes the function to accept and ignore trailing '/'
characters.  As well as allowing fdt_path_offset("/") this means that
fdt_path_offset("/foo/") will return the same as
fdt_path_offset("/foo") which seems in keeping with the principle of
least surprise.

This also adds a testcase to ensure that fdt_path_offset("/") returns
0 as it should.
