Fixed.

Fixed.

This is not about `loadstring()` at all:

| luajit -e 'return math.sin"a"'
| luajit: bad argument #1 to '?' (number expected, got string)
| stack traceback:
|         [builtin#43]: at 0x7f7c2ca6dbe0
|         [C]: at 0x558b0cd4cec0

The guest frame is looked like the following (when the error thrown):
| 0x40001938            [    ] VALUE: string "number expected, got string" @ 0x40008380
| 0x40001930            [ B  ] VALUE: string "a" @ 0x40008250
| 0x40001928            [    ] FRAME: [CP] delta=3, fast function #44

When LuaJIT tries to detect function's name it determines bytecode
position first, via `debug_framepc()`. But it can't determine bytecode
position for non-Lua functions:

| if (!isluafunc(fn)) {  /* Cannot derive a PC for non-Lua functions. */
|   return NO_BCPOS;
