Subject: [PATCH] compiler: Don't mention C++ Protobuf version in build message

There's been minor version skew between Java and C++ many times because
certain releases are one-language-only. And now we have more severe
skew, where we can't readily upgrade to newer C++ Protobuf versions
because of build complexity. Let's just remove the version, and have the
canonical C++ Protobuf version live in COMPILING.md.

See #10317
