[Buildroot] Nginx package

[Geoffrey Ragot <geoffreyragot@gmail.com>]

Hello,

the pb is that luajit (in the context) is not a builtin module of nginx.
It has to be built in a directory and nginx has to be compiled with 
"--add-module <path_to_luajit>".

The nginx package has an option to specify "--add-module" arguments but 
in this case, the dependency is not clearly mentionned in nginx.mk.
I have to care about build luajit before nginx to ensure that 
<path_to_luajit> contains required files.
