Thanks for the suggestions, Martin!  Will update them in V2.

With some experiments, I noticed that even provided const_iterator
like:

   iterator
   begin ()
   {
     return iterator (*this, 0);
   }

+  const_iterator
+  begin () const
+  {
+    return const_iterator (*this, 0);
+  }

for (const class loop *loop: ...) will still use iterator instead
of const_iterator pair.  We have to make the code look like:

  const auto& const_loops = loops_list (...);
  for (const class loop *loop: const_loops)

or
  template<typename T> constexpr const T &as_const(T &t) noexcept { return t; }
  for (const class loop *loop: as_const(loops_list...)) 

Does it look good to add below as_const along with loops_list in cfgloop.h?

+/* Provide the functionality of std::as_const to support range-based for
+   to use const iterator.  (We can't use std::as_const itself because it's
+   a C++17 feature.)  */
+template <typename T>
+constexpr const T &
+as_const (T &t) noexcept
+{
+  return t;
+}
+

BR,
Kewen
