    hexdump: use const notation
    
    Trivial fix: mark the buffer to hexdump as const so callers could avoid
    casting their const buffers when calling print_hex_dump().
    
    The patch is really trivial and I suggest to consider it as a fix
    (it fixes GCC warnings) and push it to current tree.
