of: property: Fix documentation for out values

Property fetching functions which return number of successfully fetched properties should not state that out-values are only modified if 0 is returned. Fix this. Also, "pointer to return value" is slightly suboptimal phrase as "return value" commonly refers to value function returns (not via arguments). Rather use "pointer to found values".

Changes from v1. Removed statement about modifying arg ptr only upon successful execution (as requested by Frank). Also changed "pointer to return value" with "pointer to found values"
