const the PerlIO vtables
Previously the PerlIO vtables were const only on PERL_GLOBAL_STRUCT_PRIVATE
builds, which was created for former Symbian port and today is rarely used.
Since writing/hooking the PerlIO vtables from XS has never been public API
and is very unlikely to be occuring on CPAN, make then const so they will
be shared between perl processes.
