package.

Version:  2.0.0 2022-08-08

Summary description:  Execute Lua code in any TeX engine that exposes the shell

Announcement text:
----------------------------------------------------------------------

 Breaking Changes:
 - Use `\sys_get_shell:nnNTF` from l3sys instead of `\immediate\write18`. (#13)
 - Merges `\c_luabridge_method_write_eighteen_int` and
   `\c_luabridge_method_os_execute_int` into `\c_luabridge_method_shell_int`.
 - Removes `\g_luabridge_standard_output_filename_str` and
   `\c_luabridge_default_standard_output_filename_str`.

 Fixes:
 - Execute chunks that end with `end` or a Lua comment. (#11, #14)
 - Sandbox direct Lua access. (#11, #14)
 - Make nested calls defined behavior. (#8, #13)

 Refactoring:
 - Remove needless whitespaces in Lua code.
 - Replace (plain) TeX primitives with `\iow_*` l3file functions.
   (#1, #3, latex3/latex3#1105, latex3/latex3#1114. latex3/latex3#1117)
 - Many thanks to @josephwright, @u-fischer, and @FrankMittelbach
   at latex3/latex3#1114, and Hans Hagen, @hmenke, and @mojca at
   [dev-context][1] for helping to make l3file compatible with
   ConTeXt MkII.
