Summary description: Execute Lua code in any TeX engine that exposes the shell

- Document the current limitations of the MikTeX distribution and
using shell escape to execute Lua code.
(reported by @obskyr in [witiko/markdown#566][markdown-566] and

upstream by @witiko in [miktex/miktex#1630][miktex-1630],
documented by @witiko in [witiko/markdown#574][markdown-574]

These are the current limitations:
1. The filenames of your .tex files may not contain spaces, see
also [witiko/markdown#573][markdown-573].
2. If `-output-directory` is provided, it may not contain spaces
and it won't be automatically detected by MikTeX, see also

package.
Version number: 3.11.4-0-g260a31e6 2025-06-24
License type: lppl1.3c
Summary description: Converting and rendering markdown documents inside TeX
Announcement text:
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Documentation:
- Document the current limitations of the MikTeX distribution and TeX engines
other than LuaTeX. (reported by @obskyr in #566 and by @viocha in #573,
…
[View More]escalated upstream by @witiko in [miktex/miktex#1630][miktex-1630],
documented by @witiko in #574 and [witiko/lt3luabridge#32][lt3luabridge-32])
These are the current limitations:
1. The filenames of your .tex files may not contain spaces, see also #573.
2. If `-output-directory` is provided, it may not contain spaces and it won't be
automatically detected by MikTeX, see also
[miktex/miktex#1630][miktex-1630].
Housekeeping:
- Mark uses of the deprecated conditional functions `\regex_match:*` for
removal after we have dropped support for TeX Live 2024 and earlier.
(8cd8bb5f)
Deprecation:
- Undeprecate `\markdownOptionOutputDir`.
(#566, [miktex/miktex#1630][miktex-1630], #574)
Due to the lack of support for the automatic detection of `-output-directory`
in MikTeX with TeX engines other than LuaTeX (see
[miktex/miktex#1630][miktex-1630]), there are still genuine uses of this
option. Therefore, it doesn't make sense to deprecate it.
