Clean up Lua probes for headers and libs

Use the version reported by LUABIN to look for headers and libs.
Previously you could get mismatched binary and headers (e.g.
if you install packages lua5.3 and liblua5.2-dev on Debian you
would get LUABIN from 5.3 but headers and libraries from 5.2
- now configure will fail to find the matching headers and not
try to run Lua tests), and do a versioned search in /usr/local/include
which fixes the CI failure for Lua on macOS (presumably homebrew
recently started to version this path).
