Description

Hey, I'm using your ziglua project to devendor lua in my redis fork. However, the vendored lua exposes two additional functions that it seems upstream doesn't otherwise expose (https://github.com/terrablue/zkv/blob/master/deps/lua/src/lua.h#L361-L362).

Would you mind exposing those functions as well? I find it very convenient to use ziglua as a dependency instead of rolling out my own.

Research direction

Inspect the vendored Lua header at the linked lua.h lines 361-362, then find the corresponding ziglua binding entry points. The work is complete when both additional functions are exposed for the supported system and vendored Lua setups.
