Subject: Fix Lua C function stack overflow during encoding

Ensure there are enough Lua stack slots available before descending into
another table during encoding. This fixes a segfault when encoding
deeply nested tables.

This bug wasn't noticed earlier due to the previous limit of 20 nested
tables.
