Use official builds for all platforms #49

Description

Could we please have the official binaries by Facebook for all platforms?
The linkage to snappy and bz2 causes many problems on Linux, sometimes on macOS. Replacing those with ones from Facebook works as expected without having to install third-party packages and configure symlinks for some Linux distros. Furthermore, it will be more consistent to have all the binaries in the package from Facebook built the same way with no surprises on different platforms.

This is a major headache for us and I raised this a few times here and here but no action so far. Please reconsider this; otherwise, we will have to fork and maintain a separate package and that's just another burden for us.

Also, we can't use chiseled Docker images from Microsoft straight away without ugly workarounds because of those dependencies. Again, with Facebook builds, there's no problem.
