While debugging an issue with running NixOps tests, I found out that the
output from debClosureGenerator is not deterministic.
The reason behind this is the way how Provides and Replaces fields are
handled. I haven't yet found out what's the exact issue, but so far
packages "Provides" are more or less picked at random.
So, running the NixOps Hetzner tests we get either mawk, original-awk or
gawk altering on every invocation.
While for the test it isn't poisionous whether wi have mawk or gawk,
having original-awk certainly is, because live-build only works with
mawk or gawk.
The best solution would obviously be to make debClosureGenerator
deterministic, but in the case of "Provides: awk", we can safely pick
mawk by default, because the latter has a "Priority: required" in its
package description.
This also has the advantage that we can safely cherry-pick this to
release-15.09 because it's very unlikely that we'll break the
debClosureGenerator by adding a dependency to commonDebPackages.

As mentioned by @aszlig, it's more elegant and sane to use coreutils'
`install`. This commit also changes `platforms` to `unix` since this
should also compile on Darwin for example.

I have to admit that I did very poor testing in d7307d8 and didn't
notice that the "badfiles" plugin relies on mp3val (thanks to @devhell
for packaging in 6e1ef13) and flac to be actually useful.
We now patch in the store locations of these binaries and make
"badfiles" an optional dependency (though enabled by default).
Now, I have tested "beet bad" on my whole music collection and it worked
fine (well, it has found errors... but that's what it is for).
