Removed `DESTDIR` which did not appear to be defined, moved` ldoc.lua` to the `ldoc` directory to avoid encumbering the share directory, added proper retrieval of Lua version to get proper `LUA_SHAREDIR` directory. Additionally, the file should be renamed as `Makefile`. My apologies if I just missed something and this change proposal is irrelevant.

Thanks for taking the time to contribute.
Some of this is okay, some is not.
- DESTDIR needs to come back, that can and often is defined outside of the makefile as part of distro packaging commands, e.g.
make install DESTDIR=/tmp/package/path. You can't remove that or most distros won't be able to build packages! - The filename is okay, both capitalized and not are valid.
- You can't assume directories exist. There are many different kinds of installs and not all of them look like you expect. Building packages in a
chrootis one place this may be needed.

Removed
DESTDIRwhich did not appear to be defined, movedldoc.luato theldocdirectory (on install only) to avoid encumbering the share directory, added proper retrieval of Lua version to get properLUA_SHAREDIR, made variables evaluations, immediate (=vs:=), removed redundant creation of the share directory (it’s already there if Lua is properly installed, which is implied). Additionally, the file should be renamed asMakefile.My apologies if I just missed something and this change proposal is irrelevant.
