Return the empty string for UA-Platform-Version hint on Linux

Per https://github.com/WICG/ua-client-hints/commit/56df868c6c3564461b4c0a42ea603b80fa94c8d2

Prior to this commit, UA-Platform-Version HTTP header and User-Agent
high entropy hints revealed Linux kernel version number. This
information has no legitimate use on the web and is useful only for
fingerprinting. This commit replaces real Linux version with an empty
string, matching the current specification.
