Support building glibc with gold 1.14 or above [BZ #14995]
This patch changes configure.ac to allow gold 1.14 or above to be used
to configire glibc so that gold glibc bugs can be fixed.  Tested with

CC="gcc -fuse-ld=gold" CXX="g++ -fuse-ld=gold"

on Fedora 25 with gold 1.14 (20170623).  Gold 1.14 was first released
in binutils 2.28.

On x86-64, for "make check", I got

Error in `/export/build/gnu/glibc-gold/build-x86_64-linux/elf/constload1': double free or corruption (fasttop): 0x00000000008755f0 ***
