doc: Remove misleading text about multilibs for IEEE long double
The choice of ieee or ibm long double format is orthogonal to multilibs,
as the two sets of symbols co-exist and don't need a separate multilib.
gcc/ChangeLog:
* doc/install.texi (Configuration): Remove misleading text
around LE PowerPC Linux multilibs.
