It should be preferred instead of Data:getPointer because the latter uses lightuserdata which can't store more all possible memory addresses on some new arm64 architectures, when LuaJIT is used.
At the moment it still only tries a single decoder if it does find a matching extension. It might be a good idea to simply always probe, but try the matching decoder first, that way you could name your mp3 .ogg.
- 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.

Since the type is passed to va_start, and apparently that's undefined behaviour if it's a reference.
<Textmode> the best kind of behavior

decode() uses supplied SoundData to decode to, creates new SoundData if none provided
returns SoundData containing decoded data, nil if decoder didn't produce any data
seek() only works with seconds

Any attempt to call a method on the object after it has been released will result in an error. Object:release() returns true if it was successful, or false if not (if it has already been released previously).

The basic APIs are:
video = love.graphics.newVideo("myvideo.ogv")
love.graphics.draw(video, ...) -- Video objects are Drawables.
video:play(), video:pause()
video:getDuration(), video:tell(), video:rewind(), video:seek(seconds)
video:getSource()
video:getWidth(), video:getHeight(), video:setFilter(min, mag)
More advanced APIs include video:setSource(source), video:getStream(), and videostream:setSync.
To use a custom pixel shader when drawing a Video, call the new TexelVideo(texcoords) function instead of Texel(texture, texcoords) in order to get the pixel colors of a video frame.
- Type names for love's Lua objects are specified as an argument to luax_register_type, rather than being statically defined in an array.
- luax_register_type takes a variable number of method array arguments, for registering superclass methods without copying them into the subclass' method array.
Also removed most of the header declarations for wrapper functions.
