This short series uses C++11 features to simplify libcc1.  This brings
the code closer to how I pictured it when I first wrote it.  (It would
be further improved by std::apply, but this isn't available until
C++17.)

I built and tested this against git GDB on x86-64 Fedora 32.

Note that the C++ plugin currently does not for git GCC -- it crashes.
This series doesn't make it worse (it may slightly change the reported
failures), but nor does it improve it.

There's some more simplification that could be done; for example the
two plugins currently have copies of code that ought to be shared.
However, I haven't done this.

I figured out today that it's possible to do this in C++11 -- just not
quite as convenient.  So, once this series goes in, I have another
series lined up to simplify more things, including the "callback"
template functions.
