lib/device_tree.c: zero-initialize new DT nodes
Prevents bad things from happening later when these new nodes are used.
This issue is hard to observe because:
1. Heap is zero-initialized, so you need to use allocated memory
filling it with non-zero values, free, allocate it again, use
uninitialized.
2. Most of allocated memory is not freed.
3. Implementation of free() does something only for one last malloc'ed
block, making most of freed memory unavailable for future
allocation.
