    [gdb/testsuite] Silence compilation fail in gdb.base/rtld-step.exp
    
    With gcc 7.5.0 and test-case gdb.base/rtld-step.exp, I run into:
    ...
    gdb compile failed, gcc: error: unrecognized command line option \
      '-static-pie'; did you mean '-static'?
    ...
    
    Silence this by checking in the test-case that -static-pie is supported, and
    emitting instead:
    ...
    UNTESTED: gdb.base/rtld-step.exp: \
      failed to compile (-static-pie not supported or static libc missing)
    ...
    
    Tested on x86_64-linux, with:
    - gcc 7.5.0: UNTESTED
    - gcc 12.2.1 with static glibc not installed: UNTESTED
    - gcc 12.2.1 with static glibc installed: PASS
