Add ‘const’ to make the GC marking code a bit clearer.
This can also help the compiler in some cases, I think because
GCC can now determine more often that the value of a static C
variable can be cached when its address is now converted to
‘Lisp Object const *’ before escaping.
* src/alloc.c (staticvec, mark_maybe_objects, mark_memory)
(mark_stack, staticpro, mark_object_root_visitor)
(garbage_collect_1):
* src/pdumper.c (dump_ptr_referrer, dump_emacs_reloc_to_lv)
(dump_emacs_reloc_to_emacs_ptr_raw, dump_root_visitor):
* src/lisp.h (vcopy, struct gc_root_visitor):
* src/sysdep.c (stack_overflow):
* src/thread.c (mark_one_thread):
* src/thread.h (struct thread_state):
Use pointer-to-const instead of plain pointer in some
GC-related places where either will do.
