GCC can also target BPF, but it does not understand the "-target bpf"
arguments passed to Clang.

Detect it as either bpf-gcc, bpf-none-gcc, or bpf-unknown-none-gcc, the
same as systemd does.

Determine the include paths with the compiler used by the rest of the
build rather than Clang, which might not be installed or might not give
the right answer, especially when cross-compiling.

Check whether Clang actually supports the BPF target so that
auto-detection doesn't cause the build to fail when it doesn't.

Disclaimer: I haven't actually tested the result of the GCC build.
