doc: Update install.texi for GCC 13
install.texi needs some updates for GCC 13 and trunk: * We used a mixture of Solaris 2 and Solaris references. Since Solaris 1/SunOS 4 is ancient history by now, consistently use Solaris everywhere. Likewise, explicit references to Solaris 11 can go in many places since Solaris 11.3 and 11.4 is all GCC supports. * Some caveats apply to both Solaris/SPARC and x86, like the difference between as and gas. * Some specifics are obsolete, like the /usr/ccs/bin path whose contents was merged into /usr/bin in Solaris 11.0 already. Likewise, /bin/sh is ksh93 since Solaris 11.0, so there's no need to explicitly use /bin/ksh. * I've removed the reference to OpenCSW: there's barely a need for external sites to get additional packages. OpenCSW is mostly unmaintained these days and has been found to be rather harmful then helping. * The section on assembler and linker to use was partially duplicated. Better keep the info in one place. * GNAT is bundled in recent Solaris 11.4 updates, so recommend that. Tested on i386-pc-solaris2.11 with make doc/gccinstall.{info,pdf} and inspection of the latter. 2023-04-21 Rainer Orth <ro@CeBiTec.Uni-Bielefeld.DE> gcc: * doc/install.texi: Consistently use Solaris rather than Solaris 2. Remove explicit Solaris 11 references. Markup fixes. (Options specification, --with-gnu-as): as and gas always differ on Solaris. Remove /usr/ccs/bin reference. (Installing GCC: Binaries, Solaris (SPARC, Intel)): Remove. (i?86-*-solaris2*): Merge assembler, linker recommendations ... (*-*-solaris2*): ... here. Update bundled GCC versions. Don't refer to pre-built binaries. Remove /bin/sh warning. Update assembler, linker recommendations. Document GNAT bootstrap compiler. (sparc-sun-solaris2*): Remove non-UltraSPARC reference. (sparc64-*-solaris2*): Move content... (sparcv9-*-solaris2*): ...here. Add GDC for 64-bit bootstrap compilers.
