libstdc++: Use const_cast to workaround tm_zone being non-const
Iain reported that he's seeing this on Darwin: include/bits/chrono_io.h:914: warning: ISO C++ forbids converting a string constant to 'char*' [-Wwrite-strings] This is because the BSD definition ot tm::tm_zone is a char* (and has been since 1987) rather than const char* as in Glibc and POSIX.1-2024. We can fix it by using const_cast<char*> when setting the tm_zone member. This should be safe because libc doesn't actually write anything to tm_zone; it's only non-const because the BSD definition predates the addition of the const keyword to C. For targets where it's a const char* the cast won't matter because it will be converted back to const char* on assignment anyway. libstdc++-v3/ChangeLog: * include/bits/chrono_io.h (__formatter_chrono::_M_c): Use const_cast when setting tm.tm_zone.
