hslua-aeson

Glue to hslua for aeson values.

This provides a StackValue instance for aeson's Value type. The following conventions are used:

Null values are encoded as a special value (stored in the registry field HSLUA_AESON_NULL). Using nil would cause problems with null-containing arrays.
Objects are converted to tables in a straight-forward way.
Arrays are converted to Lua tables. Array-length is included as the value at index 0. This makes it possible to distinguish between empty arrays and empty objects.
JSON numbers are converted to Lua numbers (usually doubles), which can cause a loss of precision.
