pkg/bisect: set linux gcc bisection cutoff to v4.18
The buildroot images deployed after #2820 can only boot v4.19+ kernels.
This has caused lots of bad bisection results, see #3224. We either
need a new universal image or a kernel version dependant image
selection. For now we stop at v4.19+.
FATAL: kernel too old
[ 8.076311] Kernel panic - not syncing: Attempted to kill init! exitcode=0x00007f00
