SCons: Bump minimum supported GCC version to GCC 9 

- GCC 7 supports C++17 but seems to have breaking regressions, see #79352.
- GCC 8 broke C++17 guaranteed copy elision support, fixed in 8.4, but...
- GCC 9 is old enough (2022) to use as a baseline and stop dealing with
  unmaintained and less efficient compiler versions.
