Scripting: add helper functions redis.error_reply() and redis.status_reply().

A previous commit introduced Redis.NIL. This commit adds similar helper
functions to return tables with a single field set to the specified
string so that instead of using 'return {err="My Error"}' it is possible
to use a more idiomatic form:

    return redis.error_reply("My Error")
    return redis.status_reply("OK")
