[PATCH 05/19] reftable: improve const correctness when assigning string constants

From
Patrick Steinhardt <ps@pks.im>
Date
May 29, 2024, 12:44 UTC
Message-ID
<dc5d85257eef747f2331638ed718b0f7a5bb1da2.1716983704.git.ps@pks.im>
In-Reply-To
<cover.1716983704.git.ps@pks.im>

There are many cases in the reftable tests where we assign string constants to non-const fields. This is harmless because we know that those fields are only used for reading access, but will break once we enable `-Wwrite-strings`. Add explicit casts to prepare for this.
