0270c204c2 Simplification in handling of GC debt
Each incremental step has always the same size (stepsize), and the
debt for next step also is always the same.

152b51955a Removed GC checks from function calls
Function calls do not create new objects. (It may use memory with
stack reallocation, but now that is irrelevant to the GC.)

9ede317c70 Threads are created like other objects
Using a version of 'luaC_newobj' that allows offsets (extra space
before the object itself).

8047b2d03e Tables have a 'lastfree' information only when needed
Only tables with some minimum number of entries in their hash part
have a 'lastfree' field, kept in a header before the node vector.

ee645472eb Stack reallocation done with a single realloc
To avoid the need of both the old and the new stack addresses valid
at the same time, to correct the pointers to the stack, these pointers
are changed to offsets before the reallocation and then changed back
to pointers after the reallocation.

cfbe378f90 Small simplification in overflow check in 'getfield'
Subtracting a small non-negative int from a non-negative int cannot
overflow, and adding a non-negative int to INT_MIN cannot overflow.

69b77b6fde Changed the growth rate of string buffers
The growth rate of string buffers was reduced from 2 to 1.5 (3/2).
As string buffers start larger (256~1024 bytes), they don't need to
grow that fast. Moreover, a lower rate allows multiplicative growth up
to larger sizes (3/2 of the maximum). (After that, the growth becomes
linear, which is mostly useless.)

997f11f543 Bug: 'break' may not properly close variable in a 'for' loop
Function 'leaveblock' was generating "break" label before removing
variables from the closing block. If 'createlabel' created a 'close'
instruction (which it did when matching a goto/break that exited
the scope of an upvalue), that instruction would use the wrong level.

4a00f61276 'lua_checkstack' doesn't need to check stack overflow
'luaD_growstack' already checks that. This commit also fixes an
internal bug in 'luaD_growstack': a large 'n' could cause an arithmetic
overflow when computing 'needed'.

42d40581dd Save stack space while handling errors
Because error handling (luaG_errormsg) uses slots from EXTRA_STACK,
and some errors can recur (e.g., string overflow while creating an
error message in 'luaG_runerror', or a C-stack overflow before calling
the message handler), the code should use stack slots with parsimony.

This commit fixes the bug "Lua-stack overflow when C stack overflows
while handling an error".

8426d9b4d4 Avoid computing invalid addresses
luaV_execute should compute 'ra' only when the instruction uses it.
Computing an illegal address is undefined behavior even if the address
is never dereferenced.

The explanation includes the limit case of maxinteger being a border.
