Constify the reason string throughout the authorization check framework

Almost all of the places the string is assigned point to a literal
string constant, so use const char * for those, and const char **
for function calls that return it via an argument.   Fortunately
the top level function, ClientAuthorized, which returns the string
as its return value is called from only one place, ProcEstablishConnection.

ProcEstablishConnection stores either that return value or a string literal
in char *reason.  It only uses reason as an argument to SendConnSetup.
SendConnSetup passes the reason argument to strlen & WriteToClient,
both of which already have const qualifiers on their args.
Thus added const to the reason variable in ProcEstablishConnection
and the reason argument to SendConnSetup.

Fixes gcc warnings:
