-Wwrite-strings: Add a PyArg_ParseTupleAndKeywords "const char *" overload

-Wwrite-strings flags code like:

   static char *keywords[] = {"command", "from_tty", "to_string", NULL };

as needing "(char *)" casts, because string literals are "const char []".

We can get rid of the casts by changing the array type like this:

 -  static char *keywords[] = {"command", "from_tty", "to_string", NULL };
 +  static const char *keywords[] = {"command", "from_tty", "to_string", NULL };

However, passing the such array to PyArg_ParseTupleAndKeywords no longer
works OOTB, because PyArg_ParseTupleAndKeywords expects a "char **":

  PyArg_ParseTupleAndKeywords(PyObject *args, PyObject *kw,
                              const char *format,
			      char *keywords[], ...);

and "const char **" is not implicitly convertible to "char **".  C++
is more tolerant that C here WRT aliasing, and a const_cast<char **>
is fine.  However, to avoid having all callers do the cast themselves,
this commit defines a gdb_PyArg_ParseTupleAndKeywords function here
with a corresponding 'keywords' parameter type that does the cast in a
single place.
