## Extensions
### `dv = lua_todataview(L, idx)`
Equivalent to `lua_tolstring` but returns a [`DataView`](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/JavaScript/Reference/Global_Objects/DataView) instead of a string.
### `str = lua_toljsstring(L, idx)`
Equivalent to `lua_tolstring` but returns the string as a JavaScript string (as if `to_jsstring()` was called on the result).
### `lua_tojsstring(L, idx)`
Alias for `lua_toljsstring`.
### `lua_pushjsfunction(L, func)`
Alias for `lua_pushcfunction`.
### `lua_pushjsclosure(L, func, n)`
Alias for `lua_pushcclosure`.
### `lua_atnativeerror(L, func)`
Sets a function to be called if a native JavaScript error is thrown across a lua pcall.
The function will be run as if it were a message handler (see https://www.lua.org/manual/5.3/manual.html#2.3).
The current message handler will be run after the native error handler returns.
### `b = lua_isproxy(p, L)`
Returns a boolean `b` indicating whether `p` is a proxy (See `lua_toproxy`).
If `L` is non-null, only returns `true` if `p` belongs to the same global state.
### `p = lua_toproxy(L, idx)`
Returns a JavaScript object `p` that holds a reference to the lua value at the stack index `idx`.
This object can be called with a lua_State to push the value onto that state's stack.
This example would be an inefficient way to write `lua_pushvalue(L, 1)`:
```js
var p = lua_toproxy(L, 1);
p(L);
