This way lua code can stop every iteration (usually frame), and return to the
c++ code, so love can work in environments with co-operative multithreading
like emscripten.
It may be interesting to see if we can make this optional, so this only happens
on platforms that require it, but I doubt it's significant in the grand scheme
of things.

- 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.

Functions which are deprecated will print out a message and show up in a small dialog on-screen, when they're first called. Deprecation output is disabled in fused mode by default, and can be modified with love.setDeprecationOutput(enable).

love.errhand will still be called if love.errorhandler doesn't exist, and love defines love.errhand by default rather than love.errorhandler, to prevent hard-to-diagnose problems with existing code that defines love.errhand.

* love.load now takes two arguments. signature:
love.load(args, raw_args)
* Rename love.arg functions
* Use love.arg.getLow instead of reimplementing it like a goof

With the highdpi window flag enabled on a retina-capable display and OS, content should now appear to the user at the same size and in the same positions as with the flag disabled.
As a result, mouse and touch coordinates, Texture and graphics dimensions, and the graphics coordinate system now use pixel density-scaled units instead of pixels. Raw pixel units should generally only be used for things such as shader algorithms which execute per-pixel and rely on accurate pixel dimensions. love.window.fromPixels and friends typically don’t need to be used anymore.
Images, Canvases, and Fonts can have an optional explicit ‘pixel density’ set when creating them. This allows for easily loading high pixel density content which displays at the same size as regular or low pixel density content.
API changes:
- Added Texture:getPixelWidth/getPixelHeight/getPixelDimensions and Texture:getPixelDensity. Texture:getWidth/getHeight return the pixel density-scaled width and height (as it will appear on the screen when drawn) rather than the number of pixels on each texture dimension.
- Added love.graphics.getPixelWidth/getPixelHeight/getPixelDimensions.
- Added optional ‘pixeldensity’ field to the settings table parameter of love.graphics.newImage. It defaults to 1, or if the file the Image was loaded from has “@2x”, “@3x”, etc. at the end of its name, it uses that number as the pixel density scale by default.
- love.graphics.newCanvas now takes a table as its third parameter, with fields “format”, “msaa”, and “pixeldensity”. pixeldensity defaults to the main screen’s pixel density. The width and height parameters specify the visual size that the Canvas will be drawn at / can be drawn to (pixel density-scaled units).
- love.graphics.newVideo accepts a table as its second parameter, with optional fields “audio” and “pixeldensity”. pixeldensity defaults to 1.
- love.graphics.newFont variants have an optional pixeldensity parameter at the end of the argument list. For TrueType fonts this defaults to the current pixel density scale of the screen, and for BMFonts and ImageFonts this defaults to 1.
- Added Font:getPixelDensity.
- Renamed love.window.getPixelScale to love.window.getPixelDensity.

- Removed love.graphics.set/getCanvas, Canvas:renderTo, Canvas:newImageData, love.graphics.clear, love.graphics.discard, and love.graphics.newScreenshot.
- Added love.graphics.beginPass and love.graphics.endPass. All rendering must happen within a pass. love.draw is now called while a render pass to the main screen is active.
- Added love.graphics.renderPass, which is a wrapper for begin/endPass which calls the supplied function argument in between a begin/end. This is similar to the old Canvas:renderTo.
- Added love.graphics.isPassActive, getPassCanvases, getPassWidth, getPassHeight, and getPassDimensions.
- Added love.graphics.captureScreenshot.
- Added a new love.run callback love.drawpasses, which is called after love.update and before love.draw. It is the place to render to Canvases using beginPass or renderPass, since love.draw now always draws to the main screen.
- Renamed the ‘canvasswitches’ field in the table returned by love.graphics.getStats to ‘renderpasses’.
love.graphics.beginPass has the following variants (and renderPass mirrors them with an additional function argument at the end):
- love.graphics.beginPass(), begins rendering to the main screen without clearing it.
- love.graphics.beginPass(r, g, b [, a]), begins rendering to the main screen and clears the screen to the specified color.
- love.graphics.beginPass(canvas [, willstencil]), begins rendering to the specified Canvas without clearing it. love.graphics.stencil can only be used within the Canvas if ‘willstencil’ is true.
- love.graphics.beginPass(canvas, r, g, b [, a] [, willstencil]), beings rendering to the specified Canvas and clears it to the specified color. love.graphics.stencil can only be used within the Canvas if ‘willstencil’ is true.
- love.graphics.beginPass(info), where ‘info’ is a table in the following form:
{
{canvas [, r, g, b, a]}, — A canvas and an optional color to clear the Canvas to when the pass begins.
{canvas2, [r, g, b, a]}, — Additional Canvases and optional clear colors for multi-canvas rendering.
…,
stencil = false, — Optional boolean field to specify whether love.graphics.stencil is allowed within this pass. False by default.
}
The pass info table can be created once up-front and used for multiple beginPass/renderPass calls.
love.graphics.endPass can take an optional callback function argument, which causes endPass to capture the contents of the Canvas drawn to in the render pass to a new ImageData and passes it to the supplied function (this replaces Canvas:newImageData). This does not work on the main screen.
love.graphics.captureScreenshot replaces love.graphics.newScreenshot. It takes a callback function argument which causes love.graphics.present to capture the contents of the screen to a new ImageData and passes it to the supplied function. captureScreenshot can only be called before drawing to the main screen begins in the current frame (e.g. in love.keypressed, love.update, etc.)

1. use string.match for we are mean to match
2. better match pattern which now do not allow somthing like `not-a-valid--console`
3. use while loop which allows change loop var.
