Christopher Faulet 2e60aa4dee BUG/MINOR: lua: Yield in channel functions only if lua context can yield
When a script is executed, it is not always allowed to yield. Lua sample
fetches and converters cannot yield. For lua actions, it depends on the
context. When called from tcp content ruleset, an action may yield until the
expiration of the inspect-delay timeout. From http rulesets, yield is not
possible.

Thus, when channel functions (dup, get, append, send...) are called, instead
of yielding when it is not allowed and triggering an error, we just give
up. In this case, some functions do nothing (dup, append...), some others
just interrupt the in-progress job (send, forward...). But, because these
functions don't yield anymore when it is not allowed, the script regains the
control and can continue its execution.

This patch depends on "MINOR: lua: Add a flag on lua context to know the
yield capability at run time". Both may be backported in all stable
versions. However, because nobody notice this bug till now, it is probably
not necessary, excepted if someone ask for it.
