Ivan Maidanski d219f102bb Drop boehmgc_766 attribute
Reason:
- boehmgc_766 (pkgs/top-level/all-packages.nix) is only defined but not
used in Nixpkgs, so dropping it will not affect any package in Nixpkgs.
It was introduced for the asymptote package which has moved on to the
regular boehmgc attribute. There's a slim chance that some user depends
on it, but it would be unrealistic to expect us to maintain the
attribute indefinitely.

Details:
- Delete pkgs/development/libraries/boehm-gc/7.6.6.nix
- Delete pkgs/development/libraries/boehm-gc/riscv.patch

longDescription = ''
The Boehm-Demers-Weiser conservative garbage collector can be used as a
garbage collecting replacement for C malloc or C++ new. It allows you
to allocate memory basically as you normally would, without explicitly
deallocating memory that is no longer useful. The collector
automatically recycles memory when it determines that it can no longer
be otherwise accessed.
The collector is also used by a number of programming language
implementations that either use C as intermediate code, want to
facilitate easier interoperation with C libraries, or just prefer the
simple collector interface.
Alternatively, the garbage collector may be used as a leak detector for
C or C++ programs, though that is not its primary goal.
