'luaD_pretailcall' mimics 'luaD_precall', handling call metamethods and calling C functions directly. That makes the code in the interpreter loop simpler. This commit also goes back to emulating the tail call in 'luaD_precall' with a goto, as C compilers may not do proper tail calls and the C stack can overflow much sooner than the Lua stack (which grows as the metamethod is added to it).
