3e9dbe143d New function 'table.create' 
Creates a table preallocating memory. (It just exports to Lua the API
function 'lua_createtable'.)

12b6f610b0 Several tweaks in the garbage collector 
- back with step size in collectgarbage("step")
- adjustments in defaults for some GC parameters
- adjustments in 'luaO_codeparam'

e2cc179454 New option "setparms" for 'collectgarbage' 
The generational mode also uses the parameters for the incremental
mode in its major collections, so it should be easy to change those
parameters without having to change the GC mode.

4eda1acafa Cleaner protocol between 'lua_dump' and writer function 
'lua_dump' signals to the writer function the end of a dump, so that
is has more freedom when using the stack.

842a83f09c Panic functions should not raise errors 
The standard panic function was using 'lua_tostring', which may raise
a memory-allocation error if error value is a number.

14e416355f Added suport for Fixed Buffers 
A fixed buffer keeps a binary chunk "forever", so that the program
does not need to copy some of its parts when loading it.

6443185167 "Emergency" new version 5.4.6 
'lua_resetthread' is back to its original signature, to avoid
incompatibilities in the ABI between releases of the same version.
New function 'lua_closethread' added with the "correct" signature.

5a04f1851e New function 'luaL_makeseed' 
This function unifies code from 'lua_newstate', 'math.randomseed',
and 'table.sort' that tries to create a value with a minimum level
of randomness.

0bfc572e51 Bug: GC is not reentrant

can run during a GC in 'checkstackGCp'. (This commit also fixes a
detail in the manual.) Bug introduced in commit 91673a8ec.

511d53a826 lua_settop/lua_pop closes to-be-closed variables 
The existence of 'lua_closeslot' is no reason for lua_pop not to close
to-be-closed variables too.  It is too error-prone for lua_pop not to
close tbc variables being popped from the stack.

bc970005ce '__close' methods can yield in the return of a C function 
When, inside a coroutine, a C function with to-be-closed slots return,
the corresponding metamethods can yield. ('__close' metamethods called
through 'lua_closeslot' still cannot yield, as there is no continuation
to go when resuming.)

6ccd24eff5 Simpler handling of errors when creating tbc variables 
New field 'lua_State.ptbc' keeps to-be-closed variable until its
upvalue is created, so that it can be closed in case of a
memory-allocation error.

825ac8eca8 Corrected documentation for 'table.sort' 
The sort function must define a (strict) weak order for a correct
sorting. A partial order is not enough.

cc1692515e New API function 'lua_closeslot' 
Closing a to-be-closed variable with 'lua_settop' is too restrictive,
as it erases all slots above the variable. Moreover, it adds side
effects to 'lua_settop', which should be a fairly basic function.

0ceada8da9 Report last error in closing methods

f9d29b0c44 Upvalues removed from 'openupval' before being closed 
Undo commit c220b0a5d0: '__close' is not called again in case of
errors. (Upvalue is removed from the list before the call.) The
common error that justified that change was C stack overflows, which
are much rarer with the stackless implementation.
