Fixing hlua_lua2smp() usage in hlua's code since it was assumed that hlua_lua2smp() makes a standalone smp out of lua data, but it is not the case. This is especially true when dealing with lua strings (string is extracted using lua_tolstring() which returns a pointer to lua string memory location that may be reclaimed by lua at any time when no longer used from lua's point of view). Thus, smp generated by hlua_lua2smp() may only be used from the lua context where the call was initially made, else it should be explicitly duplicated before exporting it out of lua's context to ensure safe (standalone) usage. This should be backported to all stable versions.
