I just added the State::get_lua_state function.

I'm sorry in advance if my suggestion sounds stupid!

Using QtLua I met the following problem. As far as QtLua works in the same thread as GUI for long time running scrits software stalls.

For Lua versions 5.1.x I've found the only one ability to overcome that. I register lua_hook function where I call qApp->processEvents() and tracing a code.

The problem is I failed to find any rational way to get lua_State pointer from QtLua::State. So I get it using global variable and global mutex. See lines 133-138 of attached binder.cpp file. I find this way to be not very elegant.

So my suggestion is to implement either an ability to execute long time running scripts or to provide an ability to get lua_State pointer.

I do believe I could add both issues and provide them as a patch or something like that.
