gnulib: update to 776af40e0
This fixes PR27184, a failure to compile gdb due to
cdefs.h being out of sync with glibc on ppc64le targets
which are compiled with -mabi=ieeelongdouble and glibc
2.32.

Use startswith more for strncmp function calls.

It's possible to emulate the future behavior to some extent using
-Werror=implicit-function-declaration -Werror=implicit-int. In some
cases, autotools automatically remove -Werror=* options, I think, but I
don't know if this relevant here.
The Fedora Change documentation has more details, and there are
instrumented compilers/build roots you can use for testing:

No, it shows up with all current GCC versions on ppc64le if they default
to the binary128 format for long double. Fedora was just very early in
switching, so it may appear as if it is a Fedora-specific problem, but
is really not.
