build: replace luacheck with selene

Problem: luacheck is unmaintained (last release 2018) and required
suppressing four warning classes to avoid false positives. It also
lacks first-class vim/neovim awareness.

Solution: switch to selene with std='vim' for vim-aware linting.
Replace the luacheck CI job with selene, update the Makefile lint
target, and delete .luacheckrc.
