pythongh-128902: Fix check for fallthrough attribute support (python#…

…128903)

Clang versions prior to 10 (which corresponds to Apple Clang 12) do not
support the GCC extension syntax __attribute__((fallthrough)), but do
evaluate __has_attribute(fallthrough) to 1 because they support the
C++11 style syntax [[fallthrough]]. The only way to tell if the GCC
style syntax is supported is thus to check the clang version.
