* gnu/packages/gcc.scm (gcc-4.7)[configure-flags]: Adjust the
enable-languages flag to also enable objc, obj-c++.
[native-search-paths]: Add fields for OBJC_INCLUDE_PATH,
OJBCPLUS_INCLUDE_PATH.
(gcc-objc-4.8, gcc-objc-4.9, gcc-objc-5, gcc-objc-6, gcc-objc-7,
gcc-objc-8, gcc-objc-9, gcc-objc-10, gcc-objc-11, gcc-objc-12, gcc-objc,
gcc-objc++-4.8, gcc-objc++-4.9, gcc-objc++-5, gcc-objc++-6,
gcc-objc++-7, gcc-objc++-8, gcc-objc++-9, gcc-objc++-10, gcc-objc++-11,
gcc-objc++-12, gcc-objc++, %objc-search-paths, %objc++-search-paths):
Remove variables.

Currently we have separate gcc-objc and gcc-objc++ packages, but they
need the gcc frontend to use their library files. The output of the
diff between the lib outputs of gcc-10 and gcc-objc-10 is below. The net
difference in size is 368 KB.

This would allow us to drop 20 gcc derivations per architecture, seeing
that objc and objc++ should probably be joined together anyway, and no
one can really use them as they are currently.

This patch would cause a full world rebuild, all the way down to
gcc-boot0.
