1. But why? The case of creating a tuple from values may be much faster,
when there is a lot of values not wrapped into a table. Table wrap is
costly.

Could you just merge luaT_tuple_encode_values and luaT_tuple_encode_table
into one function, withuout splitting them?

2. Better make it static. It is not used outside of this file.

3. Since you assume the function at luaT_tuple_encode_table_ref alwaus
uses ibuf, maybe it would be better to add 'on_lua_ibuf' to its name.
Or move the length calculation out of the current function, because
this one already has 'on_lua_ibuf', so it wouldn't look so strange to
get size of tarantool_lua_ibuf after it.

4. You could keep it after the comment below to reduce the diff.

5. We usually put comments on separate line.
