There was a problem hiding this comment.
This (obviously) needs a changelog entry as well as changes to the documentation of the LuaAPI. Other than that, all changes look reasonable to me, even though I do not fully understand the motivation for all of the changes.
* change `loadScriptPaths` to a `Core` private method * add comments to header file for `getHackPath` and `getConfigPath` regarding validity of the return values of these methods * fix include ordering in `LuaTools.h` * add/update documentation for Lua exports `getHackPath` and `getConfigPath` * add changelog
