patch-rs binding

[juchiast]

I'm using git dependency for patch-rs, because v0.2 is not published yet.

I tried that, but the compiler complains:

error[E0277]: `(dyn std::error::Error + std::marker::Send + 'static)` cannot be shared between threads safely

How about this.0.process().ok()? The downside is that we lost the error message.

error-chain is not compatible with failure: rust-lang-deprecated/error-chain#240

I'm doing this:

            this.0
                .process()
                .map_err(|e| rlua::Error::external(failure::err_msg(e.to_string())))

It looks like its related to how error-chain is designed. Honestly I havent used that myself especially since I thought error-chain crate was being deprecated in favor of the failure crate (since it wasnt being maintain to my knowledge). I went on and switch to the failure crate in the patch-rs. Could you check to make sure it is working for you as well and update it accordingly (including crate version, if deem necessary)?

@dariusc93
Ok, I tested current master branch of patch-rs, it works!
Publish a new version to crates.io then I'll update this PR.

@juchiast done, v0.3.0 is out there.
@dariusc93 I agree, I should have used failure from the beginning. Some of my projects still use error-chain so for some reason I went for that.
