Newer compiler versions include various improvements, ranging from
codegen and support for newer arch extensions to improved warning
messages, which help keep the code less buggy.

Stop using the six year old GCC 7.5, in favor of using whatever newest
revision the distribution decides to ship.

The vanilla GCC part doesn't apply anymore (apart from a leftover rm linaro-gcc in .github/workflows/sync_build.yml).. For ubuntu-latest, I'm now debating whether we should switch to -latest, or maybe carry a matrix of e.g. {22.04, latest(=24.04)}.. which one would you prefer?

@quic-mtharu, would need your suggestions here. I believe earlier it was ubuntu-latest and then it was moved to ubuntu-22.04 due to some upgrade issues.

@ekanshibu and @quic-kdybcio, Let’s keep using ubuntu-22.04 for now.
It’s stable, consistent across our CI, and avoids unexpected breakages when ubuntu-latest upgrades to a new major version.
We can move to the next stable Ubuntu release when we actually need new features or toolchain updates.
