VLOCAL expressions keep a reference to their corresponding 'Vardesc',
and 'Upvaldesc' (for upvalues) has a field 'ro' (read-only). So, it is
easier to check whether a variable is read-only. The decoupling in
VLOCAL between 'vidx' ('Vardesc' index) and 'sidx' (stack index)
should also help the forthcoming implementation of compile-time
constant propagation.

The syntax for local attributes ('const'/'toclose') was unified with
the regular syntax for local variables, so that we can have variables
with attributes in local definitions with multiple names; for instance:
local <toclose> f, <const> err = io.open(fname)
This new syntax does not implement constant propagation, yet.
This commit also has some small improvements to the manual.

In the 'io' library, changed the use of the metatable also as its
own "method table", so that metamethods cannot be accessed as if they
were methods. (For instance, 'io.stdin.__gc' does not result in
the finalizer metamethod anymore.)

- Better documentation in 'testes/cstack.lua' about using
'debug.setCstacklimit' to find a good limit.
- Constant LUAI_MAXCSTACK gets added CSTACKERR (extra stack for
error handling), so that it is compatible with the argument to
'debug.setCstacklimit'.

Removed the restriction that a '__call' metamethod must be an actual
function.
|
|
Added tests where the table being accessed is also the index or
value in the operation.
