Fix crash in QSPI::availablePorts() on OS X 10.10

CFTypeRef returned by IORegistryEntrySearchCFProperty sometimes may be
of unexpected type (as CFStringRef instead of CFNumberRef). In this case
the CFNumberGetValue() throws the exception.

The simplest fix is to check the type in searchShortIntProperty() before
calling CFNumberGetValue():

CFGetTypeID(result.as<CFNumberRef>()) == CFNumberGetTypeID().

Thanks to Orest Hera.
