stand: Flip the default interpreter to Lua

Browse Source 
After years in the making, lualoader is ready to make its debut. Both
flavors of loader are still built by default, and may be installed as
/boot/loader or /boot/loader.efi as appropriate either by manually creating
hard links or using LOADER_DEFAULT_INTERP as documented in build(7).

The default interpreter has been switched from 4th to Lua.
LOADER_DEFAULT_INTERP, documented in build(7), will override the default
interpreter. If you have custom FORTH code you will need to set
LOADER_DEFAULT_INTERP=4th (valid values are 4th, lua or simp) in
src.conf for the build. This will create default hard links between
loader and loader_4th instead of loader and loader_lua, the new default.
If you are using UEFI it will create the proper hard link to loader.efi.
