Thanks to Sergey Kaplun.
(cherry picked from commit f2a1cd43281361035149b6eedbd267b5e71d64d0)
On a 64-bit host, `*(uint32_t **)p` (in the
`lj_cf_ffi_meta___tostring()`) is the read of 8 bytes, while the size of
the cdata tail for the enum is only 4. This leads to heap-buffer-overflow
during the call of `tostring()` on the corresponding cdata.
This patch fixes the pointer cast to `(uint32_t *)p`, which is correct.
Sergey Kaplun:
* added the description and the test for the problem
