ACPI: property: Allow _DSD buffer data only for byte accessors

In accordance with ACPI specificication and _DSD data buffer
representation the data there is an array of bytes. Hence,
accessing it with something longer will create a sparse data
which is against of how device property APIs work in general
and also not defined in the ACPI specification (see [1]).
Fix the code to emit an error if non-byte accessor is used to
retrieve _DSD buffer data.
