scripts: Remove ICC-related dead code

Intel compiler support has already been completely removed in commit
95207db8166a ("Remove Intel compiler support"). However, it appears
that there is still some ICC-related code in scripts/cc-version.sh.
There is no harm in leaving the code as it is, but removing the dead
code makes the codebase a bit cleaner.

Hopefully all ICC-related stuff in the build scripts will be removed
after this commit, given the grep output as below:

(linux/scripts) $ grep -i -w -R 'icc'
cc-version.sh:ICC)
cc-version.sh: min_version=$($min_tool_version icc)
dtc/include-prefixes/arm64/qcom/sm6350.dtsi:#include <dt-bindings/interconnect/qcom,icc.h>

Remove Intel compiler support

We often forget about the third C compiler to build the kernel.

For example, commit a0a12c3ed057 ("asm goto: eradicate CC_HAS_ASM_GOTO")
only mentioned GCC and Clang.

init/Kconfig defines CC_IS_GCC and CC_IS_CLANG but not CC_IS_ICC,
and nobody has reported any issue.

I guess the Intel Compiler support is broken, and nobody is caring
about it.

Harald Arnesen pointed out ICC (classic Intel C/C++ compiler) is
deprecated:

$ icc -v
icc: remark #10441: The Intel(R) C++ Compiler Classic (ICC) is
deprecated and will be removed from product release in the second half
of 2023. The Intel(R) oneAPI DPC++/C++ Compiler (ICX) is the recommended
compiler moving forward. Please transition to use this compiler. Use
'-diag-disable=10441' to disable this message.
icc version 2021.7.0 (gcc version 12.1.0 compatibility)

kbuild: collect minimum tool versions into scripts/min-tool-version.sh

The kernel build uses various tools, many of which are provided by the
same software suite, for example, LLVM and Binutils.

When you raise the minimum version of Clang/LLVM, you need to update
clang_min_version in scripts/cc-version.sh and also lld_min_version in
scripts/ld-version.sh.

Kbuild can handle CC=clang and LD=ld.lld independently, but it does not
make much sense to maintain their versions separately.

Let's create a central place of minimum tool versions so you do not need
to touch multiple files. scripts/min-tool-version.sh prints the minimum
version of the given tool.

kbuild: check the minimum compiler version in Kconfig

Paul Gortmaker reported a regression in the GCC version check. [1]
If you use GCC 4.8, the build breaks before showing the error message
"error Sorry, your version of GCC is too old - please use 4.9 or newer."

I do not want to apply his fix-up since it implies we would not be able
to remove any cc-option test. Anyway, I admit checking the GCC version
in <linux/compiler-gcc.h> is too late.

Almost at the same time, Linus also suggested to move the compiler
version error to Kconfig time. [2]

I unified the two similar scripts, gcc-version.sh and clang-version.sh
into cc-version.sh. The old scripts invoked the compiler multiple times
(3 times for gcc-version.sh, 4 times for clang-version.sh). I refactored
the code so the new one invokes the compiler just once, and also tried
my best to use shell-builtin commands where possible.

The new script runs faster.

$ time ./scripts/clang-version.sh clang
120000

real 0m0.029s
user 0m0.012s
sys 0m0.021s

$ time ./scripts/cc-version.sh clang
Clang 120000

real 0m0.009s
user 0m0.006s
sys 0m0.004s

cc-version.sh also shows an error message if the compiler is too old:

$ make defconfig CC=clang-9
*** Default configuration is based on 'x86_64_defconfig'
***
*** Compiler is too old.
*** Your Clang version: 9.0.1
*** Minimum Clang version: 10.0.1
***
scripts/Kconfig.include:46: Sorry, this compiler is not supported.
make[1]: *** [scripts/kconfig/Makefile:81: defconfig] Error 1
make: *** [Makefile:602: defconfig] Error 2

The new script takes care of ICC because we have <linux/compiler-intel.h>
although I am not sure if building the kernel with ICC is well-supported.
