This is in line with the comments in /usr/include/selinux/selinux.h (libselinux-devel-3.3-4.fc36)

/* No longer used; here for compatibility with legacy callers. */
typedef char *security_context_t
#ifdef __GNUC__
__attribute__ ((deprecated))
#endif
;

transform.c uses the variable conas an argument to the libselinux functions fgetfilecon() and fsetfilecon() These were updated in 2014 to use char ** instead of security_context_t * https://github.com/SELinuxProject/selinux/commit/9eb9c9327563014ad6a807814e7975424642d5b9
