i2c: virtio: Constify struct i2c_algorithm and struct virtio_device_id

'struct i2c_algorithm' and 'struct virtio_device_id' are not modified in
this driver.

Constifying this structure moves some data to a read-only section, so
increase overall security, especially when the structure holds some
function pointers, which is the case for struct i2c_algorithm.

On a x86_64, with allmodconfig:
Before:
======
   text    data     bss     dec     hex filename
   6663     568      16    7247    1c4f drivers/i2c/busses/i2c-virtio.o

After:
=====
   text    data     bss     dec     hex filename
   6735     472      16    7223    1c37 drivers/i2c/busses/i2c-virtio.o
