ba71060381 Removed "bulk operations" 
Negligible performance gains don't justify extra complexity.

3823fc6c81 Added "bulk operations" to arrays 
A few operations on arrays can be performed "in bulk", treating all
tags of a cell as a simple (or a few) word(s).

52aa2b5d24 Details 
- 'unsigned int' -> 'unsigned'
- Some explicit casts to avoid warnings
- Test avoids printing the value of 'fail' (which may not be nil)

cc2b66c856 Removed type 'varint_t' 
size_t should be big enough to count the number of strings in a dump.
(And, by definition, it is big enough to count the length of each
string.)

165389b27b New interface to function 'luaL_openselectedlibs' 
Instead of preloading all non-loaded libraries, there is another
mask to select which libraries to preload.

c8121ce34b Revising code for Varint encoding in dumps 
- Usign lua_Unsigned to count strings.
- Varint uses a type large enough both for size_t and lua_Unsigned.
- Most-Significant Bit 0 means last byte, to conform to common usage.
- (unrelated) Change in macro 'getaddr' so that multiplication is
  by constants.

6063c47031 Field 'lastfree' changed (back) to 'Node *' 
Due to allignment, it is already using the space of a pointer, and
a pointer generates slightly simpler code.

0c9bec0d38 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.)

b34a97a4af Small optimization in 'luaH_psetint' 
It is quite common to write to empty but existing cells in the array
part of a table, so 'luaH_psetint' checks for the common case that
the table doesn't have a newindex metamethod to complete the write.

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

d862da6d04 Optimizations for 'lua_rawgeti' and 'lua_rawseti' 
'lua_rawgeti' now uses "fast track"; 'lua_rawseti' still calls
'luaH_setint', but the latter was recoded to avoid extra overhead
when writing to the array part after 'alimit'.

e288c5a918 Bug: Yielding in a hook stops in the wrong instruction 
Yielding in a hook must decrease the program counter, because it already
counted an instruction that, in the end, was not executed. However,
that decrement should be done only when about to restart the thread.
Otherwise, inspecting the thread with the debug library shows it one
instruction behind of where it really is.

e81f586001 Removed compatibility option LUA_COMPAT_GCPARAMS 
The meaning of different GC parameters changed, so there is point in
supporting old values for them. The new code simply ignores the
parameters when changing the GC mode, so the incompatibility is small.

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.

19afd91687 Solving merge issue with use of tables in dump/undump 
The use of tables in dump/undump to reuse strings did not exist in
the version that changed the representation of arrays, so it was not
corrected for the new API for tables.
