These checks are very useful, even though they might sort of cross
over the domain to what a dtc linter would do instead of the compiler.

Anyway, I think it'd be better to produce warnings than errors for
this. That way we could also merge it now while the trees are fixed
up.

Also, maybe warn for @0x<foo>, which is another unpreferred syntax, it
should just be @<foo> (with foo being in hex).
