LoongArch: Don't falsely claim gold supported in toplevel configure

The gold linker has never been ported to LoongArch (and it seems
unlikely to be ported in the future as the new architectures are
focusing on lld and/or mold for fast linkers).

ChangeLog:

	* configure.ac (ENABLE_GOLD): Remove loongarch*-*-* from target
	list.
	* configure: Regenerate.
---

Ok for GCC trunk (to get synced into Binutils later)?

I have no problem. But I have a question. Is this modification simply 
because we don’t

support it or is there an error somewhere?

If a user specify --enable-gold building Binutils, with loongarch in
this list the building system will attempt to build gold and fail.  If
removing loongarch from the list the building system will ignore --
enable-gold.

Pushed r14-9149 and the Binutils maintainer will pick it up before the
next Binutils release (AFAIK).
