Christopher Faulet c31b200872 BUG/MINOR: hlua: Don't rely on top of the stack when using Lua buffers
When the lua buffers are used, a variable number of stack slots may be
used. Thus we cannot assume that we know where the top of the stack is. It
was not an issue for lua < 5.4.3 (at least for small buffers). But
'socket:receive()' now fails with lua 5.4.3 because a light userdata is
systematically pushed on the top of the stack when a buffer is initialized.

To fix the bug, in hlua_socket_receive(), we save the index of the top of
the stack before creating the buffer. This way, we can check the number of
arguments, regardless anything was pushed on the stack or not.

Note that the other buffer usages seem to be safe.

This patch should solve the issue #1240. It should be backport to all stable
branches.

The HAProxy documentation has been split into a number of different files for
ease of use.

Please refer to the following files depending on what you're looking for :

  - INSTALL for instructions on how to build and install HAProxy
  - BRANCHES to understand the project's life cycle and what version to use
  - LICENSE for the project's license
  - CONTRIBUTING for the process to follow to submit contributions

The more detailed documentation is located into the doc/ directory :

  - doc/intro.txt for a quick introduction on HAProxy
  - doc/configuration.txt for the configuration's reference manual
  - doc/lua.txt for the Lua's reference manual
  - doc/SPOE.txt for how to use the SPOE engine
  - doc/network-namespaces.txt for how to use network namespaces under Linux
  - doc/management.txt for the management guide
  - doc/regression-testing.txt for how to use the regression testing suite
  - doc/peers.txt for the peers protocol reference
  - doc/coding-style.txt for how to adopt HAProxy's coding style
  - doc/internals for developer-specific documentation (not all up to date)
