    cheri: rseq: remove const to avoid readonly permission
    
    Using const on the definition does not work for a pure capability ABI:
    the capability permissions when accessing the object will be read only.
    
    Use a hack to hide the public declaration in the TU where the const
    objects are initialized. (This should work on non-capability targets
    too, but to err on the safe side only enable the hack on capability
    targets.)
