Building with -std=c99 is not sufficient to enforce a pure C99 build as it still allows GNU extensions which don't conflict with C99 to be used. Add -pedantic to the build options to ensure that the codebase is only using C99 constructs and the build will fail whenever any compiler extension is used. This helps to ensure that JerryScript remains portable and can be built with any C99-compatible C compiler.
Removing -Wpedantic, as any warnings of that type will already trigger an error when building with -pedantic.

The GCC 4.7 check is a leftover from the times when JerryScript was a C++11 codebase, it was there to ensure that JerryScript is compiled with a GCC version which has sufficient support for C++11.
Today JerryScript is a pure C99 codebase (enforced by building all the sources with -std=c99) and this check is no longer necessary. JerryScript should now build just fine even with rather old versions of GCC.
