[PATCH 20/23] gcc-plugins: always build plugins with C++

[Masahiro Yamada]

If the target compiler is GCC 4.8 or newer, plugins are compiled with
HOSTCXX.  Otherwise, gcc-plugin.sh will select HOSTCC or HOSTCXX.

To simpily things, let's decide GCC 4.8 is the requirement for GCC
pulgins.  With this, plugins are always built with HOSTCXX.  This is a
feature of advanced users, so this requirement whould not be not a big
issue.

Add 'depends on GCC_VERSION >= 40800' to GCC_PLUGINS, and remove the
code that was needed to build plugins with HOSTCC.
