Subject: [PATCH v4 1/9] rust: device: Create FwNode abstraction for accessing device properties

Not all property-related APIs can be exposed directly on a device.
For example, iterating over child nodes of a device will yield
fwnode_handle. Thus, in order to access properties on these child nodes,
the property access methods must be implemented on the abstraction over
fwnode_handle.
