From: Mike Pall <mike>

(cherry picked from 46a1b268eb0534182eda0447303c344a071632fe)

`print()` function uses tostring to convert all incoming values to the
strings. So, if element to convert has `__tostring` metamethod it must
be used. In LuaJIT `print()` base library function has a shortcut to
detect fast path for strings and numbers. This shortcut doesn't check
metatable presence for numbers, so `__tostring` metamethod is ignored.

This patch adds the corresponding check for metatable on base number
type, when the aforementioned shortcut is set.

Sergey Kaplun:
* added the description and the test for the problem

CI is red due to integration tests failes (same as on master) or due to
connection errors.
