Updating the prio values for printing makes no sense. The user wants to see
the prio values multipath is actually using for path group selection, and
updating the values here means actually lying to the user if the prio values
have changed, but multipathd hasn't updated them internally.
If we really don't update the pathgroup prios when we need to, this should be
fixed elsewhere. The current wrong output would just hide that if it occured.
Moreover, correctness forbids changing properties so deeply in a code path
that's supposed to print them only. Finally, this piece of code prevents the
print.c code to be converted to proper "const" usage.
