Remove gcc_version from gyp and gn files.

Remove gcc_version from gyp and gn files.

We used this to check if gcc is newer than 4.8 which is now required.
Remove the plumbing for this until we need to check gcc compiler versions
again, if ever.

No behavior change.

build/compiler_version.py:35: if tool not in ('assembler',):
There's one call to this left in the gyp build to set binutils_version. The gn
build doesn't check for this -- maybe it can get away with not checking this
because we use a sysroot now. I'll try removing that script altogether in the
gyp build in a follow-up.
