Lua pandoc module: fix MetaList constructor

Passing a MetaList object to the constructor `pandoc.MetaList` now
returns the passed list as a MetaList. This is consistent with the
constructor behavior when passed an (untagged) list.

Previously, the constructor used to create a new MetaList with the
passed MetaList as its only element.
