fix(3p/nix): Link to Abseil built by Nix

This didn't work previously ... but now it does. I think setting the
standard explicitly is what did the trick, but it's slightly unclear
to me why.

Either way this means that Abseil is no longer constantly getting
recompiled when building Nix, which is nice.
