Newer versions of beardlib does not work

[Kazenin]

Hello my friends.

I tested some mods using beardlib and older versions works well, but the newer, not. See:

09:59:57 PM Error: LUAErrRun loading LUA file mods/BeardLib/BeardLibCore.lua
09:59:57 PM Error: mods/BeardLib/Classes/FileIO.lua:4: attempt to call method 'open' (a nil value)

The BLT2.x mods are using this newer version of beardlib. Is possible fix this issue? The mods tested are assault states and wave survived

I'm guessing that's because it wants to do some Diesel File IO. @simon-wh.

Diesel does not export these functions for Linux. We could implement some of them, but we could run in to issues with the file handles, since they need to match the corresponding diesel object, or can be passed to methods that need to talk directly to diesel.

function FileIO:Open(path, flags)
    if SystemFS then
        return SystemFS:open(path, flags)
    else
        return io.open(path, flags)
    end
end

Now we have SystemFS, it's trying to use that rather than io.

If io works on both platforms, using that over SystemFS would probably be the best option.

i already provided a solution here: https://github.com/blt4linux/blt4l/issues/79#issuecomment-329737599

Linux IO Compat from @BangL is the current solution http://download.paydaymods.com/download/latest/556 The mods I tested are working correctly. Thanks @BangL
