feat: modifying functions having iterators as input should be overloaded with functions taking const_iterator
This is what most standard containers are doing today.
By replacing std::deque with boost::circular, I got a few compilation errors...
Prior to C++11, the guideline was to prefer iterator because of some STL API defect in regard to const_iterator but this got fixed in C++11
