// When a LuaParameterDictionary is constructed, a new Lua state (i.e. an
// independent Lua interpreter) is fired up to evaluate the Lua code. The code
// is expected to return a Lua table that contains key/value pairs that are the
// key/value pairs of our parameter dictionary.
//
// We keep the Lua interpreter around and the table on the stack and reference
// it in the Get* methods instead of moving its contents from Lua into a C++ map
// since we can only know in the Get* methods what data type to expect in the
// table.
//
// Some of the methods below documentation the current stack with the following
// notation: S: <bottom> ... <top>
