Description

contrib/bc: fix build with GCC

Building with GCC failed with the following error message:

error: to be safe all intermediate pointers in cast from 'char '
to 'const char
' must be 'const' qualified [-Werror=cast-qual]

This was caused by main() being declared with "char *argv[]" as the
3rd parameter, but argv later being passed cast to "const char**":

113 | if (BC_IS_BC) s = bc_main(argc, (const char**) argv);

|                                      ^

This is fixed by declaring the 3rd parameter of main() as "const
char *argv[]".

vendor/bc: upgrade to version 7.0.1

This update fixes building bc on FreeBSD with non-default compilers
(GCC-12, GCC-13). GCC warned about casting argv from non-const to const
and since warnings are treated as errors, the build failed.
