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.
