Subject: [PATCH] fix(build): check for empty value of LUAC_PRG (#16711)

If the LUAC_PRG environment variable is defined, but empty, compilation
would still be attempted but would be malformed. This results in garbage
bytes being included.

Fix this by checking that LUAC_PRG is both defined *and* non-empty.
