ci: bump gcc on dist x64 linux builder to 9.5

Support for `-fuse-ld=lld` was added in GCC 9, so this PR bumps gcc to the latest 9.x release, to prepare for switching to LLD.

`-Clinker-flavor=gnu-lld-cc -Clink-self-contained=+linker` will require our CI's GCC to understand `-fuse-ld=lld` when bootstrapping in a future where `x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu` is using `rust-lld` by default.
