Towards a new implementation of arrays
...
The array part of a table wastes too much space, due to padding.
To avoid that, we need to store values in the array as something
different from a TValue. Therefore, the API for table access
should not assume that any value in a table lives in a *TValue.
This commit is the first step to remove that assumption: functions
luaH_get*, instead of returning a *TValue where the value lives,
receive a *TValue where to put the value being accessed.
(We still have to change the luaH_set* functions.)

Option '-l' discards version sufix from file name
...
Like 'require', the command-line option '-l' discards an optional
version suffix (everything after an hyphen) from a file name when
creating the module name.
