what

Add Lua 5.5 version to build/find_lua.m4 script.

why

This helps to recognize Lua 5.5 if it's available.

The code didn't need to align as in #3525 for v3.

Note, that I installed Lua5.5, built the source with it and run all regression tests - everything was perfect. GH workflow for Windows also uses Lua 5.5.

notes

I changed the order of the versions because the script recognized the installed Lua versions from the lower version to the highest ones. Now the highest version will be used.

Pull request overview

Updates the Autoconf Lua detection macro to recognize Lua 5.5 via pkg-config and to prefer the highest installed Lua version when multiple versions are present.

Changes:

• Add Lua 5.5 pkg-config module name variants to the detection list.
• Reorder the Lua pkg-config module names so newer versions are selected first.

build/find_lua.m4:113

• lua_lib_path / lua_lib_name are not initialized before the fallback search. Previously they were actively cleared on each failed probe; with the refactor they’re only set on success. If either variable is set in the environment (or left over from earlier configure logic), the test -n "$lua_lib_path" check can short-circuit the search and yield a false positive. Explicitly initialize/clear these variables (e.g., before entering the loops or at the start of each x iteration).

    for x in ${test_paths}; do
        for v in 5.5 5.4 5.3 5.2 5.1 51 ""; do
            # Generate the necessary names: lua5.5, lua5.4 ... lua51 (legacy) or just simply lua
            curr_lib="lua${v}"
            if test -z "${v}"; then curr_lib="lua"; fi

            for y in ${LUA_SONAMES}; do
                if test -e "${x}/lib${curr_lib}.${y}"; then
                    lua_lib_path="${x}"
                    lua_lib_name="${curr_lib}"
                    break 2 # exit from two inner loops
                elif test -e "${x}/lib/lib${curr_lib}.${y}"; then
                    lua_lib_path="${x}/lib"
                    lua_lib_name="${curr_lib}"
                    break 2
                elif test -e "${x}/lib64/lib${curr_lib}.${y}"; then
                    lua_lib_path="${x}/lib64"
