[RFC PATCH v4] compiler.h: remove GCC < 3 __builtin_expect fallback

[Philippe Mathieu-Daudé]

Since commit efc6c07 ("configure: Add a test for the minimum compiler
version"), QEMU explicitely depends on GCC >= 4.8.

(clang >= 3.4 advertizes itself as GCC >= 4.2 compatible and supports
__builtin_expect too)
