Lua: add `pandoc.system` module (#5468)

The `system` Lua module provides utility functions to interact with the
operating- and file system. E.g.

    print(pandoc.system.get_current_directory())

or

    pandoc.system.with_temporary_directory('tikz', function (dir)
      -- write and compile a TikZ file with pdflatex
    end)
