Description
With regards to conduit::node::set_external:
At least for floating point types and int, conduit lacks overloads for T const* types.
Currently seens as compile error for particles in AMReX:
Src/Extern/Conduit/AMReX_Conduit_Blueprint_ParticlesI.H

Research direction
Start with conduit::node::set_external and the referenced AMReX_Conduit_Blueprint_ParticlesI.H lines 69-70, where the const-pointer call currently fails to compile. Compare the existing overloads for floating-point types and int, then verify that the AMReX particles usage compiles with const pointer inputs.
