[Minios-devel] [UNIKRAFT PATCH 06/13] build: Add a makefile function to warn user when GCC is too old

[Wei Chen <Wei.Chen@xxxxxxx>]

Some GCC flags, like processor flags have minimum GCC version
requirement. Add this makefile function to stop build and print
a error message to notify user that their GCC is too old.
