Update LuaJIT to 2.1.0-beta3
Highlights from Mike Pall [1]: The major addition over beta2 is the LJ_GC64 mode JIT compiler backend contributed by Peter Cawley. Previously, only the x64 and ARM64 interpreters could be built in this mode. This mode removes the 32 bit limitation for garbage collected memory on 64 bit systems. LuaJIT for x64 can optionally be built for LJ_GC64 mode by enabling the -DLUAJIT_ENABLE_GC64 line in src/Makefile or via 'msvcbuild.bat gc64'. Cisco Systems, Inc. and Linaro have sponsored the development of the JIT compiler backend for ARM64. Contributors are Djordje Kovacevic and Stefan Pejic from RT-RK, Charles Baylis from Linaro and Zheng Xu from ARM. ARM64 big endian mode is now supported, too. Cisco Systems, Inc. has sponsored the development of the MIPS64 interpreter and JIT compiler backend. Contributors are Djordje Kovacevic and Stefan Pejic from RT-RK. Peter Cawley has contributed the changes for full exception interoperability on Windows/x86 (32 bit). François Perrad has contributed various extensions from Lua 5.2 and Lua 5.3. Note: some left-over compatibility defines for Lua 5.0 have been removed from the header files. [1]: https://www.freelists.org/post/luajit/LuaJIT210beta3 In context of #2396
