pylibfdt: Work-around SWIG limitations with flexible arrays

Commit a41509bea3 ("libfdt: Replace deprecated 0-length arrays with
proper flexible arrays") fails to build pylibfdt:

Turns out this is known issue with SWIG: https://github.com/swig/swig/issues/1699

Implement the work-around to ignore the flexible array member.
