Gerard Marull-Paretas a202341958 devices: constify device pointers initialized at compile time
Many device pointers are initialized at compile and never changed. This
means that the device pointer can be constified (immutable).

Automated using:

```
perl -i -pe 's/const struct device \*(?!const)(.*)= DEVICE/const struct
device *const $1= DEVICE/g' **/*.c
```

VL53L0X: Time Of Flight sensor
##############################

Overview
********
This sample periodically measures distance between vl53l0x sensor
and target. The result is displayed on the console.
It also shows how we can use the vl53l0x as a proximity sensor.


Requirements
************

This sample uses the VL53L0X sensor controlled using the I2C interface.

Building and Running
********************

 This project outputs sensor data to the console. It requires a VL53L0X
 sensor, which is present on the disco_l475_iot1 board.
