Added EmmyLua export

[Mailaender]

This was used to generate https://github.com/Mailaender/vscode-openra-lua/blob/main/api/library/OpenRA.lua which is an @EmmyLua compatible API annotation compatible with many IDEs.

Time to drop the ZeroBrane export too?

Time to drop the ZeroBrane export too?

Why drop? ZeroBrane does not support @EmmyLua. The existing integration still works. Just upstream does not accept my patches pkulchenko/ZeroBranePackage#86 which isn't really motivating.

That ZeroBrane repository seems quite dead, so that might be why they aren't accepting your PR.

Some things in your example Lua file seem to be added manually - like the leading @alias, @class initTable and @fields. Those should be added to the C# code that generates the file.

Another thing that I'd like to see is we group everything inside their respective tables instead of defining an empty table and then the next 400 lines of code populate it before switching to the next table on the 401st line. I know this is auto-generated code and is not supposed to be user-facing, but increased readability is always a good idea IMO. (I can help here if you want)

I have spent a great deal of time trying to understand how this, our Lua API, EmmyLua and the generated files work, I've helped out with the changes, I've done a bunch of testing and best of all - the Lua file generated by this is already "live in production" thanks to the OpenRA Lua extension, so it's pretty obvious exactly how well it all works together.
With that I give it a 👍 and because I know reviews are hard to get these days IMO we just need a code style review for +2.

[penev92]

My 👍 still stands (despite the SECTION comments being gone).

Some deprecated methods were removed and so this needs a rebase.

[Mailaender]

All deprecated methods were removed...
