Currently, local variables in loops are moved to function globals (the initialization is replaced with an assignment in the same place). This is done for the variable's value to not get overwritten on the next loop iteration. However, this is currently not done for const variables since we didn't account for the fact they can be re-initialized with different values on different loop iterations. Therefore, we have to do the same process for const local variables but drop constness (they need to be reassigned every loop iteration).
Fixes #667.
