I'm not sure to understand everything this patch was doing but it seems
that Lua 5.3 have fixed most (if not all) of the problems related to
32/64 bits we had.

As a matter of fact, I compiled a 32 and 64-bit luac binary from the
contribs and built the youtube.lua script with them resulting in the
exact same bytecode. Therefore I guess we can get rid of the constraint
of 32-bit luac for cross-compilation (if lua >= 5.3).
