vis: also lookup Lua support files relative to the binary location
This simplifies deployment of vis on remote systems without root
access. The idea is to extract a statically linked binary together with
the lexer syntax files into some directory, adjust $PATH to include it
and have everything just work.
For now this uses /proc/self/exe and thus only works on Linux based
systems.
