libfdt: Add new maximum phandle lookup function
The fdt_get_max_phandle() function has some shortcomings. On one hand it returns just a uint32_t which means to check for the "negative" error code a caller has to explicitly check against the error code (uint32_t)-1. In addition, the -1 is the only error code that can be returned, so a caller cannot tell the difference between the various failures. Fix this by adding a new fdt_find_max_phandle() function that returns an error code on failure and 0 on success, just like other APIs, and stores the maximum phandle value in an output argument on success. This also refactors fdt_get_max_phandle() to use the new function. Add a note pointing out that the new fdt_find_max_phandle() function should be preferred over fdt_get_max_phandle().
