Why GetRootAs does not support using a pointer plus length as a parameter to a function

[rampage-raw]

FlatBuffer 2.0 Language:Lua like this: local mon = monster.GetRootAsMonster(ptr, len)

[enum-class]

I have found that it is like this in luatest.lua file : local mon = monster.GetRootAsMonster(buf, offset).

I have found that it is like this in luatest.lua file : local mon = monster.GetRootAsMonster(buf, offset).

I want the argument to the function to be a ptr instead of a string

[rampage-raw]

I did this on my own Add the pointer versions of string.unpack and string.sub to the lua source code, and then modify the lua code for flatbuffers
