PATCH 2/2 wrapper: Treat NULL as root node in devp_offset; add devp_offset_find().

Many operations, as currently used in the wrapper, assume they can pass NULL and have it be treated as the root node. However, libfdt-wrapper converts NULL to -1, which is only appropriate when searching for nodes, and will cause an error otherwise.

Hrm. AFAICT "many" in this case, means three (being calls to create_node() in devtree.c, main.c and planetcore.c).

Still I guess this patch is ok for now. I futgure I'd like to shrink the wrapper down and make the general interface be as close as possible to the native libfdt interface.
