build: Bump minimum versions in symbol checker

Debian 8 (Jessie) has:
- g++ version 4.9.2
- libc version 2.19

Ubuntu 16.04.4 (Xenial) has:
- g++ version 5.3.1
- libc version 2.23.0

CentOS 7 has:
- g++ version 4.8.5
- libc version 2.17

Taking the minimum of these as our target.
According to the GNU ABI document this corresponds to:

- GCC 4.8.5: GCC_4.8.0
