+protolib: remove const qualifiers in ProtoSortedTreeTemplate
+
+The methods PeekPrevItem() and PeekNextItem() in
+ProtoSortedTreeTemplate were using a const qualifier, but not the
+corresponding methods in ProtoSortedTree, causing a build failure with
+gcc 7.x:
+
+norm-1.5r6/protolib/include/protoTree.h: In member function 'ITEM_TYPE* ProtoSortedTreeTemplate<ITEM_TYPE>::Iterator::PeekPrevItem() const':
+norm-1.5r6/protolib/include/protoTree.h:652:93: error: no matching function for call to 'ProtoSortedTreeTemplate<ITEM_TYPE>::Iterator::PeekPrevItem() const'
+ {return static_cast<ITEM_TYPE*>(ProtoSortedTree::Iterator::PeekPrevItem());}
+ ^
+norm-1.5r6/protolib/include/protoTree.h:565:23: note: candidate: ProtoSortedTree::Item* ProtoSortedTree::Iterator::PeekPrevItem() <near match>
+ Item* PeekPrevItem()
+ ^~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+Since the same methods in ProtoTreeTemplate don't have the const
+qualifier, we take the simple solution of dropping such qualifiers
+from ProtoSortedTreeTemplate as well, which fixes the build of norm
+with gcc 7.x.
+
+Many thanks to Romain Naour <romain.naour@gmail.com> for pointing out
+the solution.
