From: Mike Pall <mike>

Reported by Changochen.

(cherry picked from 53f82e6e2e858a0a62fd1a2ff47e9866693382e6)

Additional stack traversal is needed to find an error function set for
handling runtime errors. cframe unwinding is missed for a C protected
frame during this stack traversal. It leads to undefined behaviour or
crash, when raising a runtime error on stack with the CP frame before an
error function handler (for example, an error in __gc handler).

This patch adds missing unwinding for CP frame.

* added the description and the test for the problem
