This adds a patch to allow LoxLox to run on clox. clox is modified to support up to 32768 constants per chunk, by encoding larger constant indices in two bytes. In addition, the stack size has been doubled to allow LoxLox to parse itself without overflowing the stack.
Performance
./clox sum.lox
./jlox sum.lox
./clox lox.lox < sum.lox
./jlox lox.lox < sum.lox
LoxLox under clox is only about 6.5 times slower than jlox! (on this specific benchmark, on my machine)
