lua 复制table

cocos2d-lua提供了复制方法clone()，源码如下：

function clone(object)
    local lookup_table = {}
    local function _copy(object)
        if type(object) ~= "table" then
            return object
        elseif lookup_table[object] then
            return lookup_table[object]
        end
        local newObject = {}
        lookup_table[object] = newObject
        for key, value in pairs(object) do
            newObject[_copy(key)] = _copy(value)
        end
        return setmetatable(newObject, getmetatable(object))
    end
    return _copy(object)
end
