complibs/ppl: update GMP location configuration argument for PPL v0.11 and later

'configure' for PPL 0.11 (and later) needs "--with-gmp-prefix" to
provide the location of the GMP toolkit; the previous switches were
"--with-libgmp-prefix" and "--with-libgmpxx-prefix".

The upstream log message is:

commit 08dfb6fea094f8c5a533575a3ea2095edce99a6d
Author: Roberto Bagnara <bagnara@cs.unipr.it>
Date: Sun Jul 12 21:39:46 2009 +0200

New configure option --with-gmp-prefix supersedes the (now removed)
options --with-libgmp-prefix and --with-libgmpxx-prefix.

Since PPL's 'configure' ignores unknown switches, we use all three so we
don't have to conditionalize the ppl.sh build script itself.
