osquery: 2.5.2 -> 3.2.2
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 `linenoise-ng` is obsolete as it's directly bundled with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`.
