[Buildroot] [PATCH] vlc: needs dependency on host-lua if Lua is selected

If Lua support is requested in VLC, its configure script tries to find the
luac byte compiler, which fails if host-lua is not yet built.

This can be easily reproduced by setting a minimal config with vlc and Lua
enabled, and running: 'make clean toolchain vlc'. Final output is:

checking for LUA... no
configure: WARNING: Package lua5.2 was not found in the pkg-config search path.
Perhaps you should add the directory containing `lua5.2.pc'
to the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable
No package 'lua5.2' found, trying lua 5.1 instead
checking for LUA... no
configure: WARNING: Package lua5.1 was not found in the pkg-config search path.
Perhaps you should add the directory containing `lua5.1.pc'
to the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable
No package 'lua5.1' found, trying lua >= 5.1 instead
checking for LUA... yes
checking for luac... no
configure: error: Could not find the LUA byte compiler.
make: *** [<buildroot>/output/build/vlc-2.1.2/.stamp_configured] Error 1

Fix this problem by setting host-lua as a dependency to vlc.
