- ISO C23 redefines strchr and friends that tradiotionally took
67
- a const pointer and returned a non-const pointer derived from it to
68
- preserve constness (i.e., if you ask for a substring in a const
69
- string, you get a const pointer to the substring). Update code
70
- paths that used non-const pointer to receive their results that did
71
- not have to be non-const to adjust.
