dtc: dt-check-style: Rework handling YAML/DTS in rules

Individual rules behave differently depending whether they handle
bindings (YAML) or DTS, but the code was focusing on type of indentation
(spaces vs tabs).  That indentation is actually irrelevant in some
rules, so differentiate based on file type.  This will be more relevant
in the future when more rules act differently on DTS, than on bindings.
