Introduce const-qualified variants of cpu_env() and

I wonder if we can use _Generic to make this automatic, rather than have to choose between two different function names.
Eh clever :) This seems to work:

   #define env_archcpu_(p) _Generic(*(p), \
                               CPUArchState: (void *)p, \
                               const CPUArchState: (const void *)p)

Actually simpler and even well readable:
