No errors in 'luaO_pushvfstring'
...
Any call to 'va_start' must have a corresponding call to 'va_end';
so, functions called between them (luaO_pushvfstring in particular)
cannot raise errors.

Parameter for lua_gc/LUA_GCSTEP changed to 'size_t'
...
'size_t' is the common type for measuring memory. 'int' can be too
small for steps.

Explicit limit for number of results in a call
...
The parameter 'nresults' in 'lua_call' and similar functions has a
limit of 250. It already had an undocumented (and unchecked) limit of
SHRT_MAX, but it is seldom larger than 2.

Maximum stack size may not fit in unsigned short
...
Therefore, fields ftransfer/ntransfer in lua_Debug must have type
'int'. (Maximum stack size must fit in an 'int'.) Also, this commit
adds check that maximum stack size respects size_t for size in bytes.

Better handling of size limit when resizing a table
...
Avoid silent conversions from int to unsigned int when calling
'luaH_resize'; avoid silent conversions from lua_Integer to int in
'table.create'; MAXASIZE corrected for the new implementation of arrays;
'luaH_resize' checks explicitly whether new size respects MAXASIZE.
(Even constructors were bypassing that check.)

The generational mode also uses the parameters for the incremental
