#27 Improve "const correctness"

[Markus Elfring]

Would you like to apply the advices from the article
"http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Const_correctness" to
your sources?
I suggest to add the key word "const" to the type
specifiers of parameters like "privacy" for the
function "mwSession_setPrivacyInfo" and "stat" for the
function "mwSession_setUserStatus".

It's getting there. You'll notice that mw_common.h started
using const where appropriate in the last release or so.
It's certainly something that should be applied to the
entire API

I'm actually surprised anyone noticed! Are you using the
library for a project?

I'm not using your software at the moment.
But I 'd like to contribute this little review so that the
code will be corrected and improved on this useful detail.

Meanwhile 2.0, which I am currently working on, will be
"const correct" as you put it :)

Thanks for bringing this to my attention
