485a14697c feat(sandbox) explicitly drop support of quotas on LuaJIT
The solution we use in PUC Rio Lua (with debug.sethook) simply does not
work in LuaJIT.

* We have added a `sandbox.quota_supported` field to signal this feature
  (or lack of thereof)
* We explicitly return an error if `options.quota` is passed on a LuaJIT
  environment, in order to prevent LuaJIT users from believing that they
  are protected against infinite loops.

50bfa4abca feat(sandbox): only allow strings of Lua as params
This change drops support for "protecting" raw Lua functions.

There are two main reasons for this change:

* More modern versions of PUC Rio Lua don't have `setfenv`. It is
  possible to get around this by using the debug library, but that
  library is not available in all environments.
* Solutions based on `load` (which only allow string inputs) are
  objectively better since they give the user more control. For
  instance, you can deactivate support for binary code selectively.

As a result, we are using the `load`-based sandbox in all versions of
Lua that supports it, using `setfenv`-based sandboxing only when nothing
else is available (PUC Rio 5.1).

We are also explicitly raising an error if `options.mode` is passed but
we are using `setfenv`. This is to prevent users from believing they are
protected against binary code, when in fact they are not.
