So how are you using it now?

We currently don't have any explicit handling of the nginx-lua
module. You could conceptually do something with the 'nginx additional
modules' (BR2_PACKAGE_NGINX_ADD_MODULES) option, but there's no
guarantee that nginx builds after luajit.

I guess the proper solution would be to add an explicit nginx-lua
module, similar to what we already have for nginx-dav-ext / nginx-naxsi
/ nginx-upload.

Samuel and Adam, you have added / been active around nginx and modules,
any input?
