The risk of collision is with `debug` and `normalize` which are very common
word, not with `std`.

On luarocks, their name are std._debug & std.normalize.
See https://luarocks.org/modules/gvvaughan/std._debug and
https://luarocks.org/modules/gvvaughan/std.normalize

Also, is your automated luarocks package generation logic

You could run :
    $ luarocks buildroot std._debug lua-std-debug

std._debug allows to find it on luarocks
lua-std-debug is our name on BR
