Subject: [PATCH] nethack: Convert the preBuild hook into a postUnpack hook

I think this makes sense in that unpacking lua is part of the process of
unpacking the source code. Also, it will be handy in a future commit
since this means that we can use the patch phase in order to patch lua
code for cross-compilation.
