This puts the Linux platform implementation at a similar code style and
quality to the macOS platform. The largest change is that I collapsed
the `LinuxPlatform` -> `[Backend]` -> `[Backend]State` ->
`[Backend]StateInner` to just `[Backend]` and `[Backend]State`, and in
the process removed most of the `Rc`s and `RefCell`s.
TODO:
- [x] Make sure that this is on-par with the existing implementation
- [x] Review in detail, now that the large changes are done.
- [ ] Update the roadmap
