[Feature Request] Provide a much more up-to-date compiler (at least GCC 12)

[aentinger]

This core (as well as many other Arduino cores) ships with GCC 7.2.1 20170904.

~/.arduino15/packages/arduino/tools/arm-none-eabi-gcc/7-2017q4/bin/arm-none-eabi-g++ --version
arm-none-eabi-g++ (GNU Tools for Arm Embedded Processors 7-2017-q4-major) 7.2.1 20170904 (release) [ARM/embedded-7-branch revision 255204]

Meanwhile arduino-pico uses GCC 12 and stm32duino uses GCC 10 (at least).

I suggest updating tooling to GCC 12.

On a serious note, Alexander, what is the benefit of these continuous updates of everything? It can have many benefits using a stable, older version of everything.

ArduinoCore-renesas leverages C++17 - which is only incompletely supported by GCC 7.
