libcompat.h: strsignal() should be not be decleared const

POSIX standards requires strsignal() to return a pointer to a char, not a const
pointer to a char. [1]  On uClibc, and possibly other libc's, that do not
HAVE_DECL_STRSIGNAL, libcompat.h declares const char *strsignal (int sig) which
causes a type error.
