Subject: [PATCH] linux: remove assert on linux

Asserting the hostplatform for `linux` is bad, because it can't be
caught by CI. For the `linux` package itself, it doesn't make a
difference, because it also has `meta.platforms = linux` set, so this
will fail evaluation - and in a way that can nicely be caught by CI.
