My patch started from this point ignoring all TYPE_READONLY bits on
all FUNCTION_TYPE/METHOD_TYPEs, while Richi's patch instead makes it
explicit in the IL, TYPE_READONLY is honored as before but it shouldn't
show up in any of the gimple_call_fntype types unless it is a direct
call to a const function for which we don't have a body.
In either case, vops are added on the update_stmt a few lines later.

I thought tree-profile.cc right now clears const on all const functions
with body, or is that
!(!node->clone_of || node->decl != node->clone_of->decl)
restricting it to instrumented functions only?
