Subject: [PATCH] runtime(nginx): highlight Lua in set_by_lua_block in syntax
 script
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

The set_by_lua_block directive of the Lua module takes an additional
variable as an argument which currently breaks the detection of inline
Lua blocks. For example:

    set_by_lua_block $myvar {
        return tonumber(ngx.var.myothervar)-1
    }

closes: #19362
