Exposes AsyncCompute and JSON to Lua API

[narknon]

Description

This pull request introduces the AsyncCompute and JSON functionalities to the Lua API, enabling Lua mods to perform asynchronous computations on worker threads and to serialize/deserialize data in JSON format. This enhances modding capabilities by allowing CPU-intensive tasks to be executed without blocking the main thread and facilitating data exchange (safely, unlike with ExecuteAsync that allows unrestricted access to main lua state).

Type of change

• New feature (non-breaking change which adds functionality)
• Is/requires documentation update

How has this been tested?

The new functionalities have been tested by implementing and executing sample asynchronous tasks (sleep, compute, other Lua code) and by encoding and decoding data structures to and from JSON format within Lua mods.

Checklist

• I have commented my code, particularly in hard-to-understand areas.
• I have made corresponding changes to the documentation.
• I have added the necessary description of this PR to the changelog, and I have followed the same format as other entries.

Screenshots

Additional context

The glaze library has been updated to v6.4.0 for improved JSON handling.
