This PR audits every usage of
Luaon the Creator Docs site to ensure that we are referring to the correct language throughout our documentation. In almost all cases, we mean to refer to the scripting language actually available on Roblox, which has been named Luau since 2020. I think five years is long enough for us to finally correct this issue. I've left in tact all references to Lua Learning, which of course just has the name with Lua for historical reasons, and preserved any references that otherwise actually mean to refer to Lua (such as mentions of the idiomatic pattern for classes in Lua, or references to differences between Luau and Lua).The Education folks in particular may want to add a little bit of context to explain that (at least as far as I know) most of the things they're teaching apply just as well to Lua as to Luau, but especially since all of those articles are describing programming in Roblox Studio, I think it's important to be explicit that the language they're programming in is Luau.
