[PATCH 02/19] global: assign non-const strings as required

From
Patrick Steinhardt <ps@pks.im>
Date
May 29, 2024, 12:44 UTC
Message-ID
<51ee5660a1452797ac0a45819210141c57f3dcb9.1716983704.git.ps@pks.im>
In-Reply-To
<cover.1716983704.git.ps@pks.im>

There are several cases where we initialize non-const fields with string constants. This is invalid and will cause warnings once we enable the `-Wwrite-strings` warning. Adapt those cases to instead use string arrays.
