Pedro Alves 6f937416b9 Constify strings in tracepoint.c, lookup_cmd and the completers.
This is sort of a continuation of Keith's parse_exp_1 constification
patch.  It started out by undoing these bits:

  @@ -754,9 +754,12 @@ validate_actionline (char **line, struct
   	  tmp_p = p;
   	  for (loc = t->base.loc; loc; loc = loc->next)
   	    {
  -	      p = tmp_p;
  -	      exp = parse_exp_1 (&p, loc->address,
  +	      const char *q;
  +
  +	      q = tmp_p;
  +	      exp = parse_exp_1 (&q, loc->address,
   				 block_for_pc (loc->address), 1);
  +	      p = (char *) q;

and progressively making more things const upwards, fixing fallout,
rinse repeat, until GDB built again (--enable-targets=all).

That ended up constifying lookup_cmd/add_cmd and (lots of) friends,
and the completers.

I didn't try to constify the command hooks themselves, because I know
upfront there are commands that write to the command string argument,
and I think I managed to stop at a nice non-hacky split point already.

I think the only non-really-super-obvious changes are
tracepoint.c:validate_actionline, and tracepoint.c:trace_dump_actions.

The rest is just mostly about 'char *' => 'const char *', 'char **'=>
'const char **', and the occasional (e.g., deprecated_cmd_warning)
case of 'char **'=> 'const char *', where/when I noticed that nothing
actually cares about the pointer to pointer output.

Tested on x86_64 Fedora 17, native and gdbserver.

		   README for GNU development tools

This directory contains various GNU compilers, assemblers, linkers, 
debuggers, etc., plus their support routines, definitions, and documentation.

If you are receiving this as part of a GDB release, see the file gdb/README.
If with a binutils release, see binutils/README;  if with a libg++ release,
see libg++/README, etc.  That'll give you info about this
package -- supported targets, how to use it, how to report bugs, etc.

It is now possible to automatically configure and build a variety of
tools with one command.  To build all of the tools contained herein,
run the ``configure'' script here, e.g.:

	./configure 
	make

To install them (by default in /usr/local/bin, /usr/local/lib, etc),
then do:
	make install

(If the configure script can't determine your type of computer, give it
the name as an argument, for instance ``./configure sun4''.  You can
use the script ``config.sub'' to test whether a name is recognized; if
it is, config.sub translates it to a triplet specifying CPU, vendor,
and OS.)

If you have more than one compiler on your system, it is often best to
explicitly set CC in the environment before running configure, and to
also set CC when running make.  For example (assuming sh/bash/ksh):

	CC=gcc ./configure
	make

A similar example using csh:

	setenv CC gcc
	./configure
	make

Much of the code and documentation enclosed is copyright by
the Free Software Foundation, Inc.  See the file COPYING or
COPYING.LIB in the various directories, for a description of the
GNU General Public License terms under which you can copy the files.

REPORTING BUGS: Again, see gdb/README, binutils/README, etc., for info
on where and how to report problems.
