Summary

These changes update the extension of package link files from .lua to .luau.

Problem

While these files are simple proxies for actual package code, I find a mix of .lua and .luau files in my workspace messy and unprofessional. This shift also ensures that Wally’s output meets the official standardization of the Luau Language within Roblox's tooling, creating a more cohesive and semantically accurate file structure.

Solution

Updated the file extension of package links to .luau. Also fixed test snapshots to support the change.

Alternate

If fully switching is unfeasible, a flag or TOML value to specify Luau-generated package links would work instead.

This is my first OSS contribution, so feedback is greatly appreciated! I know this is just a small tweak, but it’s a quality-of-life change that I've been wanting to see for a while now. I'd love to know if other developers feel this way. 😄
