When compiling with recent gcc and glibc-2.43 the --Wdiscarded-qualifiers
warning occurs because with ISO C23, the function strrrchr that return
pointers into their input arrays now have definitions as macros that
return a pointer to a const-qualified type when the input argument is
a pointer to a const-qualified type.

../plugins/vpn.c: In function 'get_ident':                                                                                         ../plugins/vpn.c:170:13: warning: assignment discards 'const' qualifier from pointer target type [-Wdiscarded-qualifiers]            170 |         pos = strrchr(path, '/');                                                                                                |             ^
