[PATCH 1/3] perf: tools: Fix aliasing violation in zfree uses

[Mark Rutland <mark.rutland@arm.com>]

Commit 74cf249d5cf7 (perf tools: Use zfree to help detect
use after free bugs) changed many uses of free to zfree, which
automatically clears the pointer. However, in a couple of places it
casts a const char** to void**, which the compiler doesn't like:

  cc1: warnings being treated as errors
  util/strlist.c: In function ‘str_node__delete’:
  util/strlist.c:42: error: dereferencing type-punned pointer will break strict-aliasing rules
  util/strlist.c:42: error: dereferencing type-punned pointer will break strict-aliasing rules
  make[1]: *** [util/strlist.o] Error 1

This patch fixes the issue by only throwing away the const, casting to char**
instead. This is more readily accepted by the compiler.
