Roberto Ierusalimschy 1c40ff9faa Scanner and parser use different tables for constants ...

Moreover, each function being parsed has its own table.

The code is cleaner when each table is used for one specific purpose:
The scanner uses its table to anchor and unify strings, mapping strings
to themselves; the parser uses it to reuse constants in the code,
mapping constants to their indices in the constant table. A different
table for each task avoids false collisions.
