scons: remove as version check

GNU as 2.31.1 checks if the input and output files are the same:

Assembler messages:
Fatal error: The input and output files must be distinct

The check already does not work for llvm-as which has a different
output format.

Since it is too hard to maintain the check correctly for all possible
assemblers, it is better to just remove it completely.
