When compiling with an ancient compiler (gcc-4.8.5-36.el7_6.2.aarch64)
the build fails with
lib/libcflat.a(alloc.o): In function `mult_overflow':
/home/drjones/kvm-unit-tests/lib/alloc.c:19: undefined reference to `__multi3'
According to kernel commit fb8722735f50 ("arm64: support __int128 on
gcc 5+") GCC5+ will not emit __multi3 for __int128 multiplication,
so let's just fallback to the non-__int128 overflow check when we
use gcc versions older than 5.

I'd also be OK if we'd simply declare GCC compiler versions < 5 as
unsupported ... but since it's an easy fix:
