[U-Boot] [PATCH 05/24] dtoc: Updates BytesToValue() for Python 3

[Simon Glass]

The difference between the bytes and str types in Python 3 requires a
number of minor changes to this function. Update it to handle the input
data using the 'bytes' type. Create two useful helper functions which can
be used by other modules too.
