Fix SELinux signatures in runtime
The SELinux function signatures have changed between version 2.2 and
2.3. In particular, the type of the "security context" parameter was
changed from char * to const char *, with the following patch:
SELinuxProject/selinux@9eb9c9327563014ad6a807814e7975424642d5b9.

Recent Linux distributions (e.g. Ubuntu 15.10) ship with the updated
version of libselinux. This change makes the SELinux runtime compatible
with the newer versions of the library by replacing security_context_t
with its original char * definition and defining it as const only if the
installed library does so. Whether the system uses const char * types is
detected with the configure script.

Fixes klee/klee#303.
