How to get Lua Lanes patched?

Who should I contact or How should I go about getting Lua Lanes patched?

There's a patch needed to get Lua Lanes to work with Lua compiled with the latest gcc.

Please see https://github.com/sqm-autorate/sqm-autorate/issues/32

# Contributing Guidelines

Ref: <https://openwrt.org/docs/guide-developer/packages> for overall format and construction

## Basic guidelines

All packages you commit or submit by pull-request should follow these simple
guidelines:

- Package a version which is still maintained by the upstream author and will
  be updated regularly with supported versions.
- Have no dependencies outside the OpenWrt core packages or this repository
  feed.
- Have been tested to compile with the correct includes and dependencies.
  Please also test with "Compile with full language support" found under
  "General Build Settings" set if language support is relevant to your package.
- Best of all -- it works as expected!

To add on this - I tested running the sqm-autorate Lua script on a VM running 22.03-rc1 built with imagebuilder, which gives the error mentioned in the issue Charles referred to.

Using the SDK I built an updated package for 3.16.0 and installed that in the VM. Now runs as expected.

It sounds like lualanes 3.16.0 works fine but the OpenWrt package repository still has 3.13.0-2. How do we go about getting the package in the repository updated with the newest version?
