sanity.bbclass: add test for gcc < 4.8
It is known that old versions of gcc prior to 4.8 causes builds to fail. Add a test for BUILD_CC == 'gcc' and gcc < 4.8 and recommend using scripts/install-buildtools or user built buildtools-extended-tarball. Use the new get_host_compiler_version function from lib/oe/utils.py NOTE: another solution is to install devtoolset-6+ from scl [1], but this is a rather large install (> 1 Gb) and fairly invasive. [1] https://www.softwarecollections.org/en/scls/rhscl/devtoolset-6/ Adding this code means we can increase the minimum version easily in the future too (which will soon be needed). RP: Change minimum version from 5.0 to 4.8 for initial patch Signed-off-by:Tim Orling <timothy.t.orling@linux.intel.com> Signed-off-by:
