Description:
------------
On systems (Ubuntu) with multiple versions of lua installed to

/usr/include/lua5.1/lua.h
/usr/include/lua5.2/lua.h

or other configurations - the config.m4 does not detect the correct locations for those includes and libraries correctly

this makes pecl install fail without workarounds via symlinks

Oh - and there's also an issue of naming for libraries - some libs are using liblua{version}.a (silly ubuntu) as well, so the detection needs to be a little more flexible there as well

Yeah, the config.m4 had some major issues - on linux you don't need the lua.a file to do the linking - it's better to use the check_library macro

The attached patch will fall back to detecting "versioned" lua libraries as well which should cover ubuntu/debian weirdness as well

This patch also solves configure on Fedora which use
/usr/include/lua.h
/usr/lib64/liblua-5.1.so

Please apply it
