it cannot. choices are luajit or "old regular lua". and even then old regular
lua is basically being deprecated. the new luajit release in beta has arm64
support now, so ... it's pretty much time to move on.

whole lua script only mode for edje groups (that no one uses ... :)). evas
filters rely on lua to describe the filter pipeline. just for starters.
