This PR adds support for UTF8 encoded strings. Part of the way this was implemented was we no longer assume ascii, rather we assume UTF8. I don't think any issues should come from this but we will see. In the future we might need to look into supporting both some how. This makes this PR 1/2 to fix #152, PR number 2 should come shortly for the v1.x release of this module.
This PR also adds the FFI library to luaJIT builds which resolves #159
