# What's Changed?
- Fix#1137 by appropriately retaining additional metadata from
definition files throughout the type system.
- Improve Frontend for LSPs by appropriately allowing the cancellation
of typechecking while running its destructor.
## New Solver
- Added support for the `rawget` type function.
- Reduced overall static memory usage of builtin type functions.
- Fixed a crash where visitors could mutate a union or intersection type
and fail to invalidate iteration over them in doing so.
- Revised autocomplete functionality to not rely on a separate run of
the type solver when using the new solver.
- Implemented a more relaxed semantic rule for casting.
- Fixed some smaller crashes in the new solver.
## Native Code Generation
- Add additional codegen specialization for `math.sign`
- Cleaned up a large number of outstanding fflags in the code.

### What's new?
* Removed new `table.move` optimization because of correctness problems.
### New Type Solver
* Improved error messages for type families to describe what's wrong in
more detail, and ideally without using the term `type family` at all.
* Change `boolean` and `string` singletons in type checking to report
errors to the user when they've gotten an impossible type (indicating a
type error from their context).
* Split debugging flags for type family reduction
(`DebugLuauLogTypeFamilies`) from general solver logging
(`DebugLuauLogSolver`).
* Improve type simplification to support patterns like `(number |
string) | (string | number)` becoming `number | string`.
### Native Code Generation
* Use templated `luaV_doarith` to speedup vector operation fallbacks.
* Various small changes to better support arm64 on Windows.

* Definition files can now ascribe indexers to class types.
(https://github.com/Roblox/luau/pull/949)
* Remove --compile support from the REPL. You can just use luau-compile
instead.
* When an exception is thrown during parallel typechecking (usually an
ICE), we now gracefully stop typechecking and drain active workers
before rethrowing the exception.
New solver
* Include more source location information when we hit an internal
compiler error
* Improve the logic that simplifies intersections of tables
JIT
* Save testable type annotations to bytecode
* Improve block placement for linearized blocks
* Add support for lea reg, [rip+offset] for labels
* Unify X64 and A64 codegen for RETURN
* Outline interrupt handlers for X64
* Remove global rArgN in favor of build.abi
* Change A64 INTERRUPT lowering to match X64

* Fixed gcc warning about uninitialized `std::optional`
* Fixed inlining of functions when they are used to compute their own
arguments
In the new type solver:
* Type families that are not part of a function signature cannot be
resolved at instantiation time and will now produce an error. This will
be relaxed in the future when we get constraint clauses on function
signatures (internally)
* `never` type is now comparable
* Improved typechecking of `for..in` statements
* Fixed checks for number type in `Add` type family
* Performance was improved, with particularly large gains on large
projects
And in native code generation (jit):
* We eliminated the call instruction overhead when native code support
is enabled in the VM
* Small optimizations to arm64 lowering
* Reworked LOP_GETIMPORT handling to reduce assembly code size
* Fixed non-deterministic binary output
* Fixed bad code generation caused by incorrect SSA to VM register links
invalidation
