d70a0c91ad Dump/undump reuse strings
A repeated string in a dump is represented as an index to its first
occurence, instead of another copy of the string.

413a393e62 Stack indices changed to union's
That will allow to change pointers to offsets while reallocating
the stack.

6bc0f13505 Fixed bug of long strings in binary chunks
When "undumping" a long string, the function 'loadVector' can call the
reader function, which can run the garbage collector, which can collect
the string being read. So, the string must be anchored during the call
to 'loadVector'.

422ce50d2e Fixed detail in 'loadUpvalues'
In 'lundump.c', when loading the upvalues of a function, there can be
a read error if the chunk is truncated. In that case, the creation
of the error message can trigger an emergency collection while the
prototype is still anchored. So, the prototype must be GC consistent
before loading the upvales, which implies that it the 'name' fields
must be filled with NULL before the reading.

Added as incompatibility, in the manual, the extra return of 'io.lines'.

6d7cd31fee Fixed missing GC barriers in compiler and undump
While building a new prototype, the GC needs barriers for every object
(strings and nested prototypes) that is attached to the new prototype.

61a4e64a66 Back to old encoding of versions in binary files
(Undoing part of commit f53eabeed8.)  It is better to keep this encoding
stable, so that all Lua versions can read at least the version of a
binary file.

e8a52281d9 Code style in 'ldump'/'lundump'.
- function names start with lower case;
- state is always the first parameter.

46c3587a6f Clearer distinction between types and tags
LUA_T* represents only types; tags (types + Variants) are represented
by LUA_V* constants.

5ff408d218 Changed internal representation of booleans
Instead of an explicit value (field 'b'), true and false use different
tag variants. This avoids reading an extra field and results in more
direct code. (Most code that uses booleans needs to distinguish between
true and false anyway.)

f6aab3ec1f First implementation of constant propagation
Local constant variables initialized with compile-time constants
are optimized away from the code.

54f7b46c1e New implementation for constants
VLOCAL expressions keep a reference to their corresponding 'Vardesc',
and 'Upvaldesc' (for upvalues) has a field 'ro' (read-only). So, it is
easier to check whether a variable is read-only. The decoupling in
VLOCAL between 'vidx' ('Vardesc' index) and 'sidx' (stack index)
should also help the forthcoming implementation of compile-time
constant propagation.

ed2872cd3b 'require' returns where module was found
The function 'require' returns the *loader data* as a second result.
For file searchers, this data is the path where they found the module.

f53eabeed8 Small changes in the header of binary files
- LUAC_VERSION is equal to LUA_VERSION_NUM, and it is stored
as an int.

- 'sizeof(int)' and 'sizeof(size_t)' removed from the header, as
the binary format does not depend on these sizes. (It uses its
own serialization for unsigned integer values.)

b42430fd3a 'lineinfo' in prototypes saved as differences instead of absolute
values, so that the array can use bytes instead of ints, reducing
its size. (A new array 'abslineinfo' is used when line differences
do not fit in a byte.)
