Create texinfo 4.13a easyconfig
Create a texinfo 4.13 easyconfig based on the newer 5.2 easyconfig to support builing older GCC (<=4.7.2) on newer systems. The 4.x releases of texinfo tolerated a document parsing error in earlier versions of GCC. In particular, loading the resulting module allows building GCC 4.7.2 on CentOS7. This GCC is the foundation of the goolf-1.4.10 toolchain used by many bioinformatics packages in the current EasyBuild (2.6). The easyconfig's GCC requirement was set to 4.8.4 as a convinience to match the version of GCC likely already built by the goolf-1.7.20 toolchain.
