All enum errors have (hopefully) been changed to a luax_enumerror, which has a
fixed error message. If additionally a list of valid options is passed, it
lists that in the error message. For every enum error with few options I've
implemented this using a getConstants call.
This solution has been designed specifically to reduce the number of template
instantiations (as I've been told that was a concern). All new template code
happens in places where there already was an instantiation of the relevant
StringMap. Of course there is still std::vector<std::string>...

- Moved love.math.compress / decompress / decode / encode / hash to love.data.
- Changed love.data.compress/decompress to take the format argument first instead of second.
- Added love.data.newDataView. Returns a read-only subsection of an existing Data object.
- Added love.data.newByteData. Mostly useful in combination with LuaJIT's FFI as it has no extra methods currently.
- Added implementations of Lua 5.3's data packing APIs: love.data.packString / packData / unpack / getPackedSize.
Resolves issue #1336.
Resolves issue #1331.

- Added love.math.newTransform.
- Added love.graphics.applyTransform and love.graphics.replaceTransform.
- love.graphics.draw/print/printf, Text:add/addf, and SpriteBatch:add can accept a Transform argument.
- love.graphics.push can accept an optional Transform as a second argument, which will apply the Transform after pushing the matrix stack,
- Shader:send can accept Transform objects when sending to a mat4 uniform variable.

The new versions of the functions are only used if LuaJIT's JIT compiler is enabled.
Those functions are often combined with ImageData:mapPixel or ImageData:setPixel, which also have LuaJIT FFI versions in 0.10.0 - so without JIT-able implementations of the math functions, the FFI code in the ImageData methods would not be JIT-compiled and would end up taking up to 10 times as long to execute compared to the non-FFI versions in 0.9.2.
Renamed the love.image CompressedData type to CompressedImageData.
love.math.compress returns a love.math CompressedData object which holds the newly compressed data. Currently supported formats are "lz4" and "zlib". Note that the formats are not file formats and don't compress filesystem hierarchies.
Previously, calling e.g. love.graphics.getFont() 10,000 times would retain the object 10,000 times (and release it 10,000 times when the Font object was garbage-collected in the Lua state.) Now it will only retain it once and release it once.
getState returns an implementation-dependent string representing the current state of the RandomGenerator's PRNG. setState sets the PRNG's state to an implementation-dependent string.
