Preventing download of vcredist to solve installation issues.

03/29/2016 Version 5.1.5-51

10/22/2015 Version 5.1.4-50

Steps:

Install LuaForWindows
In a temp location, unzip https://keplerproject.github.io/luarocks/releases/luarocks-2.2.2-win32.zip
In same location, unzip attached lfw_luarocks-2.2.2-win32.zip
In same location, open a command prompt

if you want to install rocks, make it a "Visual Studio Command Prompt"
make sure LUA_DEV environment var set correctly
will probably need to open command prompt as Administrator
admin rights are typically need to write to "Program Files"
5) Run lfw_install.bat
this "manually" installs 2.2.2 in the LfW directory
6) Optionally run lfw_update_rocks.bat
this will try to install (get, compile, deploy) rocks for a lot of modules
it uses the list from https://code.google.com/p/luaforwindows/
A LOT of these will fail
it uses the "popular" list from https://luarocks.org/
A FEW of these will fail
in the end you should have 40-50 modules installed as "rocks"
it does some cleanup of old stuff if new installed
