gawk: Fix "gawk-&gawk-version; is a remnant from Chapter 7" again
We'd fixed #5180 by forcing LN='ln -f'. But this has stopped to work
with gawk-5.2.2 (and 5.3.0) because now the building system explicitly
checks the existence of gawk-&gawk-version; and refuses to update it if
it exists.
Now removing the file before "make install" seems the easiest solution.
