commit be2ca1e03965ffb214b6cbda0ffd84daeeb5f214 upstream.
To support a potential usage:
static foo: Opaque<Foo> = ..; // Or defined in an extern block.
...
fn bar() {
let ptr = foo.get();
}
`Opaque::get` need to be `const`, otherwise compiler will complain
because calls on statics are limited to const functions.
Also `Opaque::get` should be naturally `const` since it's a composition
of two `const` functions: `UnsafeCell::get` and `ptr::cast`.
