LOG: [lldb][x86] Remove GCC 6 workaround (#210317)

Added by 3bea7306e8669f94bacafae68748a9139cfc0b98.

We now require GCC >= 7.4 so it can be removed.

I tested a standalone reproducer with GCC 7.3 and
clang 5. Neither have the problem.

Standalone reproducer:
```
 struct Base {
   Base(int) {}
 };

 struct Derived : virtual Base {
 #ifdef WORKAROUND
     Derived(int a): Base(a) {}
 #endif
   virtual void g() = 0;
 };

 struct Final : Derived {
   Final(int n) : Base(n)
 #ifdef WORKAROUND
   , Derived(n)
 #endif
   {}
   void g() override {}
 };
```
