LuaJIT uses self-modifying code, which I don't think webassembly supports.
Well, even though the JIT compiler won't work in that context, porting
LuaJIT's assembly-based interpreter over to WebAssembly may still give
us a nice speedup as compared to a similar WA port of the standard Lua
interpreters. The JIT compiler part of LuaJIT is optional anyway.
