nvpair: Constify string functions

After addressing coverity complaints involving `nvpair_name()`, the
compiler started complaining about dropping const. This lead to a rabbit
hole where not only `nvpair_name()` needed to be constified, but also
`nvpair_value_string()`, `fnvpair_value_string()` and a few other static
functions, plus variable pointers throughout the code. The result became
a fairly big change, so it has been split out into its own patch.
