Make gcc-8.1 and binutils-2.30 the minimum version

From: Arnd Bergmann <arnd@arndb.de>

x86 already requires gcc-8.1 since linux-6.15-rc1, which led me to
actually go through all  version checks and make this is the minimum
for all architectures.

Most of the actual resulting changes are actually for raising the
binutils version, which eliminates version checks on x86 and arm64.

Arnd Bergmann (4):
  kbuild: require gcc-8 and binutils-2.30
  raid6: skip avx512 checks
  x86: remove checks for binutils-2.30 and earlier
  arm64: drop binutils version checks
