Now, simply remove the userdata table immediately before dropping the userdata.
This does two things, it prevents __gc from double dropping the userdata, and
after the first call to __gc, it prevents the userdata from being identified as
any particular userdata type, so it cannot be misused after being finalized.
This change thus removes the userdata invalidation error, and simplifies a lot
of userdata handling code.
It also fixes a panic bug. Because there is no predictable order for
finalizers, it is possible to run a userdata finalizer that does not resurrect
itself before a lua table finalizer that accesses that userdata, and this means
that there were several asserts that were possible to trigger in normal Lua code
in util.rs related to `WrappedError`.
Now, finalized userdata is simply a userdata with no methods, so any use of
finalized userdata becomes a normal script runtime error (though, with a
potentially confusing error message). As a future improvement, we could set
a metatable on finalized userdata that provides a better error message.
Also make sure that panic messages clearly state that they are internal errors,
so people report them as a bug. Since the only panics left are all internal
errors, just move the internal error message into the panic / assert macros.
- Update readme, changelog, cargo version number in preparation for release
- Remove panicking behavior on recursive callback calls, add additional error
variant for recursive callback errors.
CallbackError now, instead of displaying the cause description, instead prints
"callback error: <traceback>". Since the cause is already in the cause chain of
the error, this avoids repeatedly printing the cause of callback errors along
the chain, and also actually prints the callback when using Display on each
error in the chain.
Since this is `rlua::Error`, it should be clear that it refers to
Lua-related errors. Downstream crates want to define their own error
enums, which can add a prefix like "lua error:" to disambiguate.
