Can't compile on GCC 14

[konradmb]

Description

GCC 14 introduces a couple of changes, among them - certain warnings are now errors. One of those changes I've stumbled upon now is -Wincompatible-pointer-types (https://gcc.gnu.org/gcc-14/porting_to.html#incompatible-pointer-types).

Compiling chronos is impossible now because of this error. I've added the resulting error message of running V=1 nimble test on chronos git source.

Workaround: --passC:-Wno-error=incompatible-pointer-types
