as3.tolua corrupts text encoding

[GoogleCodeExporter]

These tests fail (add them to TestAS3LuaInterface.as)

    public function testAS3ToLuaForeignStringAS3():void
    {
      lua_wrapper.setGlobal(luaState, "HELLO", "Привет!");
      var script:String = ( <![CDATA[
        assert(as3.tolua(HELLO) == "Привет!", "HELLO is corrupted")
        ]]> ).toString();
      var stack:Array = lua_wrapper.luaDoString(luaState, script);
      assertTrue(stack[0]);
      assertEquals(1, stack.length);
    }

    public function testAS3ToLuaForeignStringPassThroughSimple():void
    {
      lua_wrapper.setGlobal(luaState, "HELLO", "Привет!");
      var script:String = ( <![CDATA[
        return as3.tolua(HELLO)
        ]]> ).toString();
      var stack:Array = lua_wrapper.luaDoString(luaState, script);
      assertTrue(stack[0]);
      assertEquals("tolua", "Привет!", stack[1]);

      assertEquals(2, stack.length);
    }

• Changed state: Fixed

Note: Actually that was a silly bug with multibyte string handling, not with 
encoding. 
We've tried to measure buffer length as a number of multibyte characters, not 
as a 
number of bytes.
