[bug] OleFileIO.getproperties creates immense for-loop

[andrew0411]

getproperties function creates massive property_type (ex.4294967295) that derives from unpacking '\xff\xff\xff\xff'.

The picture depicts s, offset, property_id, property_type, which are the inputs of OleFileIO._parse_property() respectively.

The for-loop with 4294967295 iteraions are made in OleFileIO._parse_property() which occurs system and resource instability.

Also, the bug in getproperties causes lots of function fail in the oletools as well.

To add, the last version of olefile (v0.46) has returned None for all properties in the same file. I think the if-else syntax in the latest getproperties needs to be fixed.
