usb: gadget: configfs: Constify struct config_item_type

'struct config_item_type' is not modified in this file.

Apparently, these structures are only used with
config_group_init_type_name() which takes a const struct config_item_type*
as a 3rd argument.

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

On a x86_64, with allmodconfig:
Before:
======
   text    data     bss     dec     hex filename
  40834    5112      64   46010    b3ba drivers/usb/gadget/configfs.o

After:
=====
   text    data     bss     dec     hex filename
  41218    4728      64   46010    b3ba drivers/usb/gadget/configfs.o
