OF_getprop_alloc takes element size argument and returns number of
elements in the property. There are valid use cases for such behavior
but mostly API consumers pass 1 as element size to get string
properties. What API users would expect from OF_getprop_alloc is to be
a combination of malloc + OF_getprop with the same semantic of return
value. This patch modifies API signature to match these expectations.
For the valid use cases with element size != 1 and to reduce
modification scope new OF_getprop_alloc_multi function has been
introduced that behaves the same way OF_getprop_alloc behaved prior to
this patch.

- Introduce new OF API function OF_prop_free to free memory allocated by
OF_getprop_alloc and OF_getencprop_alloc. Current code just calls free(9)
with M_OFWPROP memory class which assumes knowledge about OF_*prop_alloc
functions' internals and leads to unneccessary code coupling
- Convert some of the free(..., M_OFWPROP) instances to OF_prop_free
Files affected by this commit are the ones I was able to test on real
hardware. The rest of free(..., M_OFWPROP) instances will be handled with
idividual maintainers

gpiokey driver implements functional subset of gpiokeys device-tree bindings:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/Documentation/devicetree/bindings/input/gpio-keys.txt
It acts as a virtual keyboard, so keys are visible through kbdmux(4)
Driver maps linux scancodes for most common keys to FreeBSD scancodes and
also extends spec by introducing freebsd,code property to specify
FreeBSD-native scancodes.
