'table.tunpack' using 'aux_getn' like the others
...
'table.tunpack' was not checking its first argument, which could
result in error messages generated inside the API, without location
information.

BUG: shift overflow in utf-8 decode
...
An initial byte \xFF will ask for 7 continuation bytes, and then the
shift by (count * 5) will try to shift 35 bits.

Avoid an assignment of values that overlap
...
The original code was like this, where t->u.ind.t and t->u.info overlap:
t->u.ind.t = cast_byte((t->k == VLOCAL) ? t->u.var.ridx: t->u.info);

More effort in avoiding errors in finalizers
...
Before calling a finalizer, Lua not only checks stack limits, but
actually ensures that a minimum number of slots are already allocated
for the call. (If it cannot ensure that, it postpones the finalizer.)
That avoids finalizers not running due to memory errors that the
programmer cannot control.

BUG: Arithmetic overflow in 'collectgarbage"step"'
...
The computation of a new debt could overflow when we give a too large
step to 'collectgarbage"step"' and the current debt was already
negative. This is only an issue if your platform cares for it or if you
compile Lua with an option like '-fsanitize=undefined'.

GC checks stack space before running finalizer
...
If the stack does not have some minimum available space, the GC defers
calling a finalizer until the next cycle. That avoids errors while
running a finalizer that the programmer cannot control.
