More effort in avoiding errors in finalizers

Before calling a finalizer, Lua not only checks stack limits, but
actually ensures that a minimum number of slots are already allocated
for the call. (If it cannot ensure that, it postpones the finalizer.)
That avoids finalizers not running due to memory errors that the
programmer cannot control.
