Added macro 'luaL_pushfail'
...
The macro 'luaL_pushfail' documents all places in the standard libraries
that return nil to signal some kind of failure. It is defined as
'lua_pushnil'. The manual also got a notation (@fail) to document those
returns. The tests were changed to be agnostic regarding whether 'fail'
is 'nil' or 'false'.

New function 'luaL_addgsub'
...
Added a new function 'luaL_addgsub', similar to 'luaL_gsub' but that
adds its result directly to a preexisting buffer, avoiding the creation
of one extra intermediate string. Also added two simple macros,
'luaL_bufflen' and 'luaL_buffaddr', to query the current length
and the contents address of a buffer.

Better error messages for some polymorphic functions
...
New auxiliary functions/macros 'luaL_argexpected'/'luaL_typeerror'
ease the creation of error messages such as
bad argument #2 to 'setmetatable' (nil or table expected, got boolean)
(The novelty being the "got boolean" part...)

Removed resource-related "emergency collections"
...
New to-be-closed variables is a better way to ensure the proper release
of resources.

Added "emergency collection" to 'io.tmpfile' and 'os.tmpname'
...
These operations also can give errors for lack of resources, so they
also will try "emergency collections" in case of resource errors.
Because there are now two libraries with that kind of handling,
'resourcetryagain' was moved to the auxiliary library to be shared
by the libraries.
