allow Pre-Install-Pkgs hooks to get info over an FD != stdin
This adds ::InfoFD option alongside the ::Version one to request sending the information to the specified FD, by default it is STDIN as it was the case before. The environment variable APT_HOOK_INFO_FD contains the FD the data is on as a confirmation that the APT version used understood the request. Allowing the hook to choose the FD is needed/helpful e.g. for shellscripts which have a hard time accessing FDs above 9 (as >= 10 are usually used internally by them) Closes: #671728
