The order of the byte are different because the platforms where you
ran luac are different.
For the format of the header, see

The 8 bytes " 00 00 00 00 00 28 77 40" are a double (370.5 in Lua
5.3), stored in Intel order.
The 8 bytes "00 28 77 40 00 00 00 00" are the same number stored in a
different order, I'm guessing an ARM here.
