For pre-ANSI-C compatibility reasons, string literals have a mutable type, but
it is undefined behaviour to mutate them.
Swap char *'s to const char *'s for variables which hold string literals.
This fixes several violations of MISRA Rule 7.4:
A string literal shall not be assigned to an object unless the object's type
is "pointer to const-qualified char".
No functional change.

I had a similar patch in my queue. But never sent as I didn't know
whether it would be accepted. This was one of the major blocker for
switching the hypervisor to use const string.
