bug#20452: 25.0.50; [PATCH] Invalid compilation warning about GTK+ when

When compiling the latest version of Emacs, I encountered a warning
about my GTK+ version during the configuration phase:

> configure: WARNING: Your version of Gtk+ will have problems with
>        closing open displays.  This is no problem if you just use
>        one display, but if you use more than one and close one of them
>        Emacs may crash.

This seemed curious to me, so I dug in a little deeper and noticed that
this part of the configure script was written in 2008 and was supposed
to warn users of GTK+ 2.8 and earlier, released in 2005. I'm using GTK+
3.14.

I wrote a tiny patch to fix the check.

(Maybe the whole warning should be removed? Is there someone still using
GTK+ 2.8 or older?)
