gcc.texi: Update e-mail addresses and URLs to gcc.gnu.org.


        * gcc.texi: Update e-mail addresses and URLs to gcc.gnu.org.
        Removed paragraph about compression of files and size limitation,
        duplicated in the FAQ.  Use gcc-patches for posting patches.
        * gcc.c (main): Updated URL with bug reporting instructions to
        gcc.gnu.org.  Removed e-mail address.
        * system.h (abort): Likewise.
