The cast of n (number of repetitions) to size_t may truncate its value, causing a buffer overflow later. Better to check the buffer size using lua_Integer, as all string lengths must fit in a lua_Integer and n already is a lua_Integer. If everything fits in MAX_SIZE, then we can safely convert n to size_t and compute the buffer size as a size_t. As a corner case, n can be larger than size_t if the strings being repeated have length zero, but in this case it will be multiplied by zero, so an overflow in the cast is irrelevant.
