Motivation for this change

"lua" + lua.luaversion + "-" resolves to "lua51-" for both Lua 5.1 and LuaJIT packages. With this, LuaJIT packages instead get lua.name + "-", which currently resolves to "luajit-2.1.0-beta3-". This makes it easy to distinguish the two package sets in store paths, etc.

Things done
  • [x Tested using sandboxing (nix.useSandbox on NixOS, or option sandbox in nix.conf on non-NixOS)
  • Built on platform(s)
    • NixOS
    • macOS
    • other Linux distributions
  • Tested via one or more NixOS test(s) if existing and applicable for the change (look inside nixos/tests)
  • Tested compilation of all pkgs that depend on this change using nix-shell -p nix-review --run "nix-review wip"
  • Tested execution of all binary files (usually in ./result/bin/)
  • Determined the impact on package closure size (by running nix path-info -S before and after)
  • Assured whether relevant documentation is up to date
  • Fits CONTRIBUTING.md.

`lua.name + "-"`, which currently resolves to "luajit-2.1.0-beta3-".
