The HTML documentation is part of the standard distribution.
So, yes, you can ship it too, provided you include the copyright notice.
Legal questions about Lua almost always have the same answer: you can do it,
provided credit is given and anything that you change is plainly marked as such,
so as to not be mistaken for the standard distribution.
