Changes
memoize nils, add type checks for frame and options, use string library functions instead of mw.text.trim and mw.ustring.find, define four different tidyVal functions to avoid checking options every time
-- This module provides easy processing of arguments passed to Scribunto from #invoke.
-- It is intended for use by other Lua modules, and should not be called from #invoke directly.

local nilArg = {} -- Used for memoizing nil arguments in metaArgs.
-- Generate four different tidyVal functions, so that we don't have to check the options every time we call it.

-- Define metatable behaviour. Arguments are stored memoized in the metaArgs table, and are only fetched from the -- argument tables once. Nil arguments are also memoized using the nilArg variable in order to increase -- performance. Also, we keep a record in the metatable of when pairs and ipairs have been called,so we -- so we do not run pairs and ipairs on fargs and pargs more than once. We also do not run ipairs on fargsand -- and pargs if pairs has already been run, as all the arguments will already have been copied over.
