mingw: declare main()'s argv as constjk/common-main-2.8
In 84d32bf (sparse: Fix mingw_main() argument number/type errors, 2013-04-27), we addressed problems identified by the 'sparse' tool where argv was declared inconsistently. The way we addressed it was by casting from the non-const version to the const-version. This patch is long overdue, fixing compat/mingw.h's declaration to make the "argv" parameter const. This also allows us to lose the "const" trickery introduced earlier to common-main.c:main().
