Description
Like #408, but for Lua 5.1/5.2/5.3. The goal would be to try to reduce noise in diffs of Inlet decks stored in a project repo.
I don't program in Lua (yet?), so I'm not sure if there's a good choice of formatter. Of the ones I found on LuaRocks, https://github.com/Koihik/LuaFormatter seemed like it had the best infrastructure and community.
If this issue is still open, I'll probably work on it after #416 is closed.

Research direction
Start by comparing this request with issue #408 and the planned work in #416, then evaluate LuaFormatter for Lua 5.1, 5.2, and 5.3. No source file or test is identified in the issue; done means adding a checker/styler that reduces noise in Inlet deck diffs stored in project repositories.
