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.
