btrfs_stream: Lua parsing library

Btrfs is a copy on write file system based on B-trees focusing on fault tolerance, repair and easy administration. Btrfs is intended to address the lack of pooling, snapshots, checksums, and integral multi-device spanning in Linux file systems. Given any pair of subvolumes (or snapshots), Btrfs can generate a binary diff between them by using the btrfs send command that can be replayed later by using btrfs receive, possibly on a different Btrfs file system. The btrfs send command creates a set of data modifications required for converting one subvolume into another. This spec can be used to disassemble the binary diff created by the btrfs send command. If you want a text representation you may want to checkout btrfs receive --dump instead.
