Berthold Stoeger 643a964d09 Cleanup: unconstify string argument to add_to_string()
add_to_string() frees the original string that is passed in. This
should therefore not be of "const char *" type, as the contents
of the string *will* be modified (or more precisely: destroyed).

Same for the congener smtk_concat_str().

* struct membuffer mb = { 0 };
*
* Internal membuffer buffer will not by default contain null terminator,

* String concatenation is done with consecutive calls to put_xxx functions
*
* put_string(&mb, "something");
* put_string(&mb, ", something else");
* printf("%s", mb_cstring(&mb));

* Will result in

* or via a callback
*
* mb_cstring(&mb);
* cb(detach_buffer(&mb));
