Patch to change gcc5 -> gcc7

A small tweak to eliminate the confusing reference to gcc5 from lang/gcc/pkg-descr

Good observation, thank you!

How about if we remove the reference to a specific version altogether
and talk about the "default version of GCC in the Ports Collection"?

Remove the stale reference to GCC version

Removing the version number entirely would also fix the problem, and would be easier to maintain in the future. I've included a new patch that reflects this approach.
