remote: return non-const pointer from error_buf()

We have an error_buf() helper that functions a bit like our error()
helper, but returns NULL instead of -1. Its return type is "const char
*", but this is overly restrictive. If we use the helper in a function
that returns non-const "char *", the compiler will complain about
the implicit cast from const to non-const.

Meanwhile, the const in the helper is doing nothing useful, as it only
ever returns NULL. Let's drop the const, which will let us use it in
both types of function.
