GCC plugins are loadable modules that provide extra features to the
compiler. They are useful for runtime instrumentation and static analysis.

Now that the compiler's plugin support is checked in Kconfig, all{yes,mod}config will not be bothered. Remove 'depends on !COMPILE_TEST' for GCC_PLUGINS. 'depends on !COMPILE_TEST' for the following three are still kept: GCC_PLUGIN_CYC_COMPLEXITY GCC_PLUGIN_STRUCTLEAK_VERBOSE GCC_PLUGIN_RANDSTRUCT_PERFORMANCE Kees suggested to do so because the first two are too noisy, and the last one would reduce the compile test coverage. I commented the reasons in arch/Kconfig.
