Split host additional into separate table (#875)
- Move host `additional` into a separate table.
- Join when that data is needed.
- API change: `/api/v1/fleet/hosts` now returns only the requested
  `additional` columns, unless `*` is provided as the sole argument.

Background:

A customer reported that MySQL binlogs grew huge and replication lag
went way up when data was stored in the `additional` column. In this
deployment MySQL was running with ROW replication. This would cause the
entire `additional` data to be copied on each update of the host checkin
time. While switching to STATEMENT or MIXED replication would likely
mitigate the issue, this was not an option in their environment.
