For PowerPC, GCC 5.2 is the requirement for GCC plugins.  Move the
version check to Kconfig so that the GCC plugin menus will be hidden
if an older compiler is in use.

I think we should retain the "buggy" note as a comment in Kconfig
since that knowledge isn't obvious just from the GCC_VERSION test.
