Use gccgo to bootstrap go on aarch64 (#30350)

Browse source 
The go-bootstrap package doesn't work on aarch64 platforms, so the only way
to build Go is to use gccgo.

Also, some versions of gccgo have a bug that prevents them from compiling
go (see golang/go#47771), so this patch limits gcc to versions newer than
10.4.0 or 11.3.0.

# aarch64 machines (including Macs with Apple silicon) can't use
