[Buildroot] [PATCH 1/2] configs/sipeed_licheepi_4a_defconfig: glibc needs gcc >= 15

[Buildroot] [PATCH 1/2] configs/sipeed_licheepi_4a_defconfig: glibc needs gcc >= 15

[Romain Naour via buildroot]

The sipeed_licheepi_4a defconfig doesn't build since the glibc version
bump to 2.43 [1]. Glibc increased the minimal gcc version for riscv
w/ ISA RVV in commit [2].

Select gcc 15 in this defconfig to be able to build a glibc based
toolchain.

Fixes:

[Buildroot] [PATCH 2/2] package/glibc: riscv w/ ISA RVV needs gcc >= 15

[Romain Naour via buildroot]

The sipeed_licheepi_4a defconfig doesn't build since the glibc version
bump to 2.43 [1]. Glibc increased the minimal gcc version for riscv
w/ ISA RVV in commit [2].

Add a new glibc dependency on gcc 15 when ISA RVV is enabled.
