Details

Several small improvements (code style, warnings, comments, more tests),
in particular:

- 'lua_topointer' extended to handle strings
- raises an error in 'string.format("%10q")' ('%q' with modifiers)
- in the manual for 'string.format', the term "option" replaced by
  "conversion specifier" (the term used by the C standard)
