    Fix and add const qualifiers
    
    For https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=689483
    
    It seems there are functions that do use the const qualifier for some of the
    arguments, but it seems that there are a lot of functions that don't use it and
    probably should.
    
    So I created a patch against 2.9.0 that makes as much as possible const in
    tree.h, and changed other files as needed.
    
    There were a lot of cases like "const xmlNodePtr node".  This doesn't actually
    do anything, there the *pointer* is constant not the object it points to. So I
    changed those to "const xmlNode *node".
    
    I also removed some consts, mostly in the Copy functions, because those
    functions can actually modify the doc or node they copy from

    To build on an Unixised setup:
       ./configure ; make ; make install
    To build on Windows:
       see instructions on win32/Readme.txt
    
    To assert build quality:
       on an Unixised setup:
          run make tests
       otherwise:
           There is 3 standalone tools runtest.c runsuite.c testapi.c, which
           should compile as part of the build or as any application would.
           Launch them from this directory to get results, runtest checks 
           the proper functionning of libxml2 main APIs while testapi does
           a full coverage check. Report failures to the list.
