[PATCH v3] userdiff: Fix some corner cases in dts regex

While reviewing some dts diffs recently I noticed that the hunk header logic was failing to find the containing node. This is because the regex doesn't consider properties that may span multiple lines, i.e.

	property = <something>,
		   <something_else>;

and it got hung up on comments inside nodes that look like the root node because they start with '/*'. Add tests for these cases and update the regex to find them. Maybe detecting the root node is too complicated but forcing it to be a backslash with any amount of whitespace up to an open bracket seemed OK. I tried to detect that a comment is in-between the two parts but I wasn't happy so I just dropped it.

Changes from v2:
 * Updated test to be really multiline.
Changes from v1:
 * Added a new boolean property unit test
 * Updated the regex to simplify multi-line property skipping
 * Added some space to multieline prop test between cells in
   first property
