Series libbpf: Fix cast away const qualifiers in btf.h | expand

I'm getting following errors when compiling with -Wcast-qual:

  bpf/btf.h: In function ‘btf_var_secinfo* btf_var_secinfos(const btf_type*)’:
  bpf/btf.h:302:41: warning: cast from type ‘const btf_type*’ to type
  ‘btf_var_secinfo*’ casts away qualifiers [-Wcast-qual]
    302 |  return (struct btf_var_secinfo *)(t + 1);
        |                                         ^

The argument is const so the cast to following struct btf_var_secinfo
pointer should be const as well. Casting the const away in btf.c call
where it's correctly used without const in deduplication code.
