[libc++] Use -nostdlib++ on GCC unconditionally (#68832)

We support GCC 13, which supports the flag. This allows simplifying the
CMake logic around the use of -nostdlib++. Note that there are other
places where we don't assume -nostdlib++ yet in the build, but this
patch is intentionally trying to be small because this part of our CMake
is pretty tricky.
