You don't really ever semantically mutate them in the first place. There's no need to mention it every time you pass them around.
Most managers are stateful because they also store the elements they manage (e.g. `ProgramStateManager` stores states, `SValBuilder` owns other managers such as `SymbolManager` that stores symbols etc.) It is also true that `BugReporter` should not change the existing set of states, symbols etc., just use them in a read-only way. However, I see more confusion than help in making them const here and non-const elsewhere.
