This cast was made by purpose for older libbpf where the
bpf_object_skeleton field is void * instead of const void *
to eliminate a warning (as i understand
-Wincompatible-pointer-types-discards-qualifiers) but this
cast introduces another warning (-Wcast-qual) for libbpf
where data field is const void *
It makes sense for bpftool to be in sync with libbpf from
kernel sources
