cpumf/pai: Remove unnecessary const parameter definition

With glibc 2.43 const-ness is preserved for standard library functions
and a compiler warning will be issued if this is violated.

pai parse_cpulist() receives user input via the parm function
parameter. The parameter is defined as 'const char *' and used as input
value for strchr(). The target pointer (cp) is defined as mutable
'char *' leading to violation of const correctness and this compiler
warning:

pai.c: In function ‘parse_cpulist’:
pai.c:907:20: warning: assignment discards ‘const’ qualifier from
			pointer target type [-Wdiscarded-qualifiers]
  907 |                 cp = strchr(parm, ':');

Since the user input is coming from optarg 'non-const char *', it is
unnecessary to have the function parameters carrying this data defined
as const.

Remove the unnecessary const definition in the function call chain to
fix the described issue.
