Lua had a bug, but the change was done incorrectly in libuv. The numbering
of enum values changed between 1.20 and 1.21, thus any binary compiled for
1.20 can be subtly broken by upgrading to 1.21.

In particular, the lchown uv_fs_type was not added at the end[1]. This
breaks ABI and should require a transition.

See also the abi tracker report:
https://abi-laboratory.pro/index.php?view=compat_report&l=libuv&v1=1.20.3&v2=1.21.0&obj=121f9&kind=abi

This affects nodejs too.
