Description:
Here's a patch implementing TIP 27 (CONST-ification
of APIs) for the files generic/tclIOUtil.c and 
generic/tclPosixStr.c.  It includes necessary changes
to docs and headers. 

Note in particular that several routines previously
returning (char *) now return (CONST char *) and this
may be a source incompatibility for the callers as
approved in TIP 27.

Assigned to maintainer for review.

Sorry for delay; on vacation.  This patch looks good, so 
I'm glad it's already committed.

Vince.

After (cursory) positive review from Jeff on the Tcl'ers
chat, I'm going ahead and committing this one.  We can
back it out if Vince sees trouble with it.
