Lua standalone won't build after switching between packaged formats

Created by: v-jizhang

with starter_type = native and native_link_strategy = merged, switching between packaging does not work. Repro steps: $cat BUCK

lua_binary(
    name = "simple",
    main_module = "simple",
    deps = [
        ":simple-lib",
    ],
)

lua_library(
    name = "simple-lib",
    srcs = [
        "simple.lua",
    ],
)

python_binary(
    name = "packager",
    main_module = "packager",
    deps = [
        ":lib-packager",
    ],
)

python_library(
    name = "lib-packager",
    srcs = [
        "packager.py",
    ],
)

$cat .buckconfig

[lua]
  starter_type = native
  native_link_strategy = merged

$cat packager.py

    with open(args[0], "w") as f:

sys.exit(main(sys.argv))

$touch simple.lua

• Run an inital build using the standalone packaging style buck build --show-outputs -c lua.package_style=standalone -c lua.packager=//:packager //:simple

• Now rebuild with just changing to an in-place packaging style buck build --show-outputs -c lua.package_style=inplace //:simple

• Now rebuild again, switching back to in-place, and verify the output matches the original build's output. (Actual, the build seems successful but no output generated) buck build --show-outputs -c lua.package_style=standalone -c lua.packager=//:packager //:simple
