Add Lua language support.

Lua FFI has a few notable differrences from regular generated C headers:
* Custom prelude/epilogue with `ffi.cdef` directive.
* Constants defined using `static const` syntax instead of `#define`.
* Different comments format using `--` or `[[` instead of `/* */`.
* Doesn't support `#include`, `#ifdef` or other macros.

Lua FFI described in more details at http://luajit.org/ext_ffi.html

Other changes:
* Added const generics support for the structs.
* Added implementation for array of any const size `N`.
* Added `try_as_str` implementation for `str_ref`.
