Use pointers to c_char instead of i8 in miri_host_to_target_path

This makes sure that the interface of `miri_host_to_target_path` is compatible with `CStr` for targets where `c_char` is unsigned (such as ARM). This commit changes the signature of `miri_host_to_target_path` in the README and in all test cases.
