Invalid conversion from 'void (*)()' to 'void (*)(char*) compilation errors about ar488 HOT 5 CLOSED

Have tested with the standalone IDE version 1.8.7 and 1.8.8 downloaded directly from the Arduino site and did not receive the errors or warnings. However, then tested with v1.8.8/1.8.19.0 downloaded from the Windows 10 store and discovered that these warnings do indeed appear.

Will investigate further to see whether the code can be adjusted to avoid them.

Line 413: changed the expression NULL to character expression '\0'.
This seemed to resolve the warnings and the code compiled cleanly.

In the new release of the code (0.46.01), the names of the #define variables related to GPIB commands (e.g. SPE) have been changed to avoid clashes with other Arduino modules.

Further corrections made to the code to remove all warnings. By default it seems that this setting is now set to None, so all warnings were hidden. Compilation is now done with the Arduino IDE set to show ALL compiler warnings.
