mkimg: Const correctness for C23
On some platforms, e.g. Linux Clang 22.1.8 / glibc 2.43, strchr()
now implements the C23 behaviour where passing a const pointer to
strchr() also returns a const pointer. This breaks mkimg during
the bootstrap build, since it assumes the return value is always
a mutable pointer.
Make the existing 'sep' pointer const to fix the first case, and
for the second, introduce a new non-const pointer for strchr,
since we do modify the result in that case.
