plotutils: fix build with clang 16
Clang defaults to C++, which disallows the register storage class
specifier. This causes the build to fail. Remove the specifier to allow
clang 16 to build plotutils.

longDescription =
'' The GNU plotutils package contains software for both programmers and
technical users. Its centerpiece is libplot, a powerful C/C++
function library for exporting 2-D vector graphics in many file
formats, both vector and raster. It can also do vector graphics
animations.
libplot is device-independent in the sense that its API (application
programming interface) does not depend on the type of graphics file
to be exported.
Besides libplot, the package contains command-line programs for
plotting scientific data. Many of them use libplot to export
graphics.
