This is a large set of changes that accomplishes a few different goals all at the same time.
With these changes, we:
Alongside this change, all CI is now handled on Github Actions instead of being split between Actions and appveyor.
The makefile and make.bat have been moved into a single make and nmake compatible makefile. While it makes the makefile slightly more complicated, I felt that the distinction was necessary now that mingw builds are possible and make.bat would always attempt a msvc build.
The cmake Find* modules have all been cleaned up and commented.
All precompiled lua files are now precompiled using luac.lua instead of luajit's object output, it was causing issues on arm64 Darwin and it's much more simple to handle PUC and Luajit the same here.
The luv package has also been added to package.preload as
luv
in order to be more compatible with what luarocks packages may expect.
