As suggested in https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/39416#discussion_r183845745
the versioning attributes in `lib` should be consistent to
`nixos/version` which implicates the following changes:
* `lib.trivial.version` -> `lib.trivial.release`
* `lib.trivial.suffix` -> `lib.trivial.versionSuffix`
* `lib.nixpkgsVersion` -> `lib.version`
As `lib.nixpkgsVersion` is referenced several times in `NixOS/nixpkgs`,
`NixOS/nix` and probably several user's setups. As the rename will cause
a notable impact it's better to keep `lib.nixpkgsVersion` as alias with
a warning yielded by `builtins.trace`.
The package was originally broken as reported in #38940 and
facebook/osquery#4257. The latest version (3.x) contains several
important fixes for GCC 7, so now we can compile without a much less
complicated patches.
The following changes were needed to fix the derivation:
* Upgrade `osquery/third-party` to the latest rev to be compliant with
osquery 3.
* Keep using an override for the AWS SDK (for a lower closure size and
less compile time), but make the `ec2` API available.
* Added the dependencies `fpm`, `zstd`, `rdkafka`, `rapidjson` to the
build. `linenoise-ng` is obsolete as it's directly bundled with
`osquery/third-party`.
* Fixed the linking issue with `gflags` as recommended in the mailing
list: https://groups.google.com/d/msg/nix-devel/l1blj-mWxtI/J3CwPATBCAAJ
* Dropped the obsolete dependencies `cpp-netlib`, `lz4`, `apt` and
`devicemapper` (thanks @Infinisil).
* Override `OSQUERY_PLATFORM` to provide `nixos:version`
for sandbox and non-NixOS based builds. The `platform-nixos.patch`
file is now obsolete (thanks @flokli).
The patch was rebased against the 3.x branch of `osquery` and contains
mostly old changes. Additionally several testing targets were skipped as
they broke the build.
The functionality has been testing using the following command:
```
mkdir /tmp/osq.log/
./result/bin/osqueryd --pidfile /tmp/osq.pid \
--database_path /tmp/test.db --logger_path /tmp/osq.log
```
With the daemon running the database can be queried easily using
`./result/bin/osqueryi`.

A lot of packages are needlessly quoting the homepage meta attribute
(about 1400, 22%), this commit refactors all of those instances.
