Optional redundant brackets
This patch makes many of the brackets ( Parentheses ) which don't add any information to the code optional.
In the current version of the patch, brackets the following brackets can be left away.
Method call without any arguments:
object:method
-- equals
object:method()
Method invocation on any literal (string, number, true, false, nil)
"Hello":upper
-- equals
("Hello"):upper()
43:tostring
-- equals
(43):tostring()
Obviously this change is only practical once a meaningful metatable was set for string, number etc.
Operators on tables (except call operator)
a = { a = 12 }.a
b = { 1 = 14, 12 = "t" }[a]
The patch should be backward compatible for existing Lua 5.2 scripts.
This was tested with the Lua test suite where it passed all test with exception of some which tested an error output.
