This is a maintenance release in the 2.x branch while work is ongoing
for LuaRocks 3.0 in the master branch. In particular, it contains a
number of fixes for the Windows platform and updates to the bundled
binaries in the Windows .zip package of LuaRocks. Here's what's new
since 2.4.3:

* All platfoms: Do not halt a package deletion process when a file
from the package is missing
* Windows: Updated bundled binaries: Lua 5.1.5, Wget 1.19.4, 7zip 18.01
* Windows: updated installer to better handle gcc toolchains
* Windows: fix detection of directories
* Windows: fixes .def generation

This release contains commits by Michal Cichra, Sebastian Thomschke,
Thijs Schreijer, Simone Livieri, Peter Melnichenko and myself.

As always, all kinds of feedback are greatly appreciated.

Thank you, enjoy!
