selftests/resctrl: Make benchmark command const and build it with pointers
[ Upstream commit e33cb5702a9f287d829b0e9e6abe57f6a4aba6d2 ]
Benchmark command is used in multiple tests so it should not be
mutated by the tests but CMT test alters span argument. Due to the
order of tests (CMT test runs last), mutating the span argument in CMT
test does not trigger any real problems currently.
Mark benchmark_cmd strings as const and setup the benchmark command
using pointers. Because the benchmark command becomes const, the input
arguments can be used directly. Besides being simpler, using the input
arguments directly also removes the internal size restriction.
CMT test has to create a copy of the benchmark command before altering
the benchmark command.
