Use arrays rather than pointers for global string constants
My understanding is that it's mildly better to use a static const
array, as opposed to a "const char *", for a global string constant,
when possible. This makes sense to me because the pointer requires a
load from an address, whereas the array is just the address.
So, I searched for these in gdb and gdbserver. This patch fixes the
ones I found.
