Log:
  stand: Flip the default interpreter to Lua
  
  After years in the making, lualoader is ready to make its debut. Both
  flavors of loader are still built by default, and may be installed as
  /boot/loader or /boot/loader.efi as appropriate either by manually creating
  hard links or using LOADER_DEFAULT_INTERP as documented in build(7).
