Anton Staaf 033089f290 dtc: Add support for variable sized elements
Elements of size 8, 16, 32, and 64 bits are supported.  The new
/bits/ syntax was selected so as to not pollute the reserved
keyword space with uint8/uint16/... type names.

With this patch the following property assignment:

    property = /bits/ 16 <0x1234 0x5678 0x0 0xffff>;

is equivalent to:

    property = <0x12345678 0x0000ffff>;

It is now also possible to directly specify a 64 bit literal in a
cell list, also known as an array using:

    property = /bits/ 64 <0xdeadbeef00000000>;

It is an error to attempt to store a literal into an element that is
too small to hold the literal, and the compiler will generate an
error when it detects this.  For instance:

    property = /bits/ 8 <256>;

Will fail to compile.  It is also an error to attempt to place a
reference in a non 32-bit element.

The documentation has been changed to reflect that the cell list
is now an array of elements that can be of sizes other than the
default 32-bit cell size.

The sized_cells test tests the creation and access of 8, 16, 32,
and 64-bit sized elements.  It also tests that the creation of two
properties, one with 16 bit elements and one with 32 bit elements
result in the same property contents.
