Texlive - minimal workaround for ConTeXt.

Browse Source 
Use scripts so that 'mkiv' (based on luatex) will work,
rather than requiring extra package 'luametatex' which
is very different from the rest of texlive.

TeXLive includes some files for ConTeXt but the source of that is
separate and has moved on from using luatex in the previous 'mkiv'
version to using luametatex which can be pulled with git from
<ulink url="href=https://github.com/contextgarden/luametatex/releases/tags/"/>.
Luametatex uses meson and ninja, but it does not fit easily into
the BLFS layout of TeXLive.

However, with a little extra work 'mkiv' files can still be processed
using the files shipped in texmf.
