I happened to look at the disassemble code today, and I saw a few
minor changes that, IMO, make it a bit cleaner.

Regression tested on x86-64 Fedora 38.

This changes get_disassembler_options to return a const char *.

I found a few unnecessary casts when calling
set_gdbarch_disassembler_options_implicit.

I noticed that the disassembler_options code uses manual memory
management.  It seemed simpler to replace this with std::string.

These all seem sensible.  It seems a bit odd to me that
gdbarch_disassembler_options returns a pointer to the string rather
than the string, but that was true before and not related to your
changes.

I guess it's so it can be set and fetched with a single api, and so
