Function luaL_addvalue

third-party/lua-5.5.0/src/lauxlib.c:650–658

** 'luaL_addvalue' is the only function in the Buffer system where the ** box (if existent) is not on the top of the stack. So, instead of ** calling 'luaL_addlstring', it replicates the code using -2 as the ** last argument to 'prepbuffsize', signaling that the box is (or will ** be) below the string being added to the buffer. (Box creation can ** trigger an emergency GC, so we should not remove

** stack before we have the space guaranteed.)
