[igt-dev] [PATCH i-g-t] lib/igt_audio: make audio_signal_detect take const data

[Simon Ser]

audio_signal_detect uses gsl_fft_real_radix2_transform which mutates the data
array. This can be surprising when calling audio_signal_detect and then read
again the data (e.g. for another check).

Instead of mutating the array, make audio_signal_detect less error-prone by
taking a const parameter. Do an internal copy before calling the gsl function.
