Moved the 'linux_update' resource reference out of the describe/subject block into a control-level variable. Also, generated a list of package names to pass to the 'List of out-of-date packages' block instead of the entire JSON object for cleaner output.

This looks like a scoping issue for utilizing resource references inside of describe and/or subject blocks. Setting a variable to the contents of the resource outside of the block seems to fix the issue.
I don't fully understand Inspec scoping so there might be a more elegant solution.
