The return value from logmsg_reencode may be either a newly
allocated buffer or a pointer to the existing commit->buffer.
We would not want the caller to accidentally free() or
modify the latter, so let's mark it as const. We can cast
away the constness in logmsg_free, but only once we have
determined that it is a free-able buffer.
