Proposed patch

As of today, USE_GCC=3Dyes (and USE_GCC=3Dany in most circumstances) and
consequently many of the USES=3Dcompiler settings use the canonical GCC
port lang/gcc.

With the new setup where I have introduced lang/gcc5-devel for weekly
snapshots and lang/gcc5 for releases, and similarly for GCC 6 and onward,
we can easily leverage lang/gcc5 (and later ports) for that role and
indeed of today lang/gcc and lang/gcc5 are nearly identical (short of
symlinks for gcc, g++, and gfortran binariesthe former provides).

Once this patch has been tested successfully and committed, the next
step will be stripping down lang/gcc to serve a similar function as
lang/python.  But, one step at a time. ;-)
