Merging master into luajit branch

Allocate 256 bits, not 256 bytes, for a charset

Fix charset conflicts

Report correct token position from LR backends

Iterative (chunked) input processing

Remove now unneeded workaround

I'm not too happy about their handling of the issue. Seems fiddly.

Anyway this commit is now required to build on Appveyor.
