Commit Message

Avoid potential infinite loop in _is_table_equals()

If two tables each contain a self-referencing field with the same
name, the recursive logic in _is_table_equals() might cause an
infinite loop, which will usually end with a stack overflow.

Passing an optional `parent` field with the containing table
enables us to detect this condition (actual == parent), and avoid
the recursion. Table fields that contain self-references will now
simply be compared "by value" instead of evaluating them.

Fixes #48.
