From what I can tell, we may as well formally raise the minimum
gcc version to 8.1+ already, as that is a version that is
actually used in distros, and we have been on 5.1+ for a few
years already.

Not sure if there are any other benefits to gcc-8 besides
allowing minor cleanups.

gcc-9 would bring --std=gnu2x support, but it may be too
early for that.
