## General
This week has been spent mostly on fixing bugs in incremental
autocomplete as well as making the new Type Solver more stable.
- Fixes a bug where registered "require" aliases were case-sensitive
instead of case-insensitive.
### New Type Solver
- Adjust literal sub typing logic to account for unreduced type
functions
- Implement a number of subtyping stack utilization improvements
- Emit a single error if an internal type escapes a module's interface
- Checked function errors in the New Non Strict warn about incorrect
argument use with one-indexed positions, e.g. `argument #1 was used
incorrectly` instead of `argument #0 was used incorrectly`.
- Improvements to type function reduction that let us progress further
while reducing
- Augment the generalization system to not emit duplicate constraints.
- Fix a bug where we didn't seal tables in modules that failed to
complete typechecking.
### Fragment Autocomplete
- Provide richer autocomplete suggestions inside of for loops
- Provide richer autocomplete suggestions inside of interpolated string
expressions
- Improve the quality of error messages when typing out interpolated
strings.
### Compiler
- Fixes REX encoding of extended byte registers for the x86 assembly
code generation.
- Fixes for table shape constant data encoding

## General
- Support AstStatDeclareGlobal output as a source string (via
@karl-police in #1889)
- Luau heap dump correctly reports the size of a string, now including
overhead for the string type
- Prevent yields from Luau `xpcall` error handling function.
## Analysis
- Avoid exponential blowup when normalizing union of normalized free
variables.
- Fix type pack-related bugs that caused infinite recursion when:
- A generic type pack was bound to itself during subtyping.
- In type pack flattening, when that same generic type pack was now
being bound another generic type pack which contained it.
- Properly simplify `any & (*error-type* | string)` to `*error-type* |
*error-type* | string` instead of hanging due to creating a huge union
type.

Another week, another release!
## Analysis
- Hide errors in all solver modes (not just strict mode) if the only
error is that type inference failed to complete.
- Make various analysis components solver-agnostic (`setType`, `visit`,
`Scope` methods).
- Fix an issue where type inference may fail to complete when assigning
a table's member to the table itself.
- Fix a bug when accessing a table member on a local after the local is
assigned to in an if-else block, loop, or other similar language
construct.
- Fixes#1914.
- Fix type-checking of if-then-else expressions.
- Fixes#1815.

# What's changed?
Another somewhat quiet week! Don't let the large PR fool you, this is
mostly ...
## New Solver
* The code for type functions has been re-organized: instead of
_everything_ living in `TypeFunction.h` and `TypeFunction.cpp`, we now
have separate files for the type function inference machinery
(`TypeFunction.h`), definitions of built-in type functions
(`BuiltinTypeFunctions.h`), and the implementation of user defined type
functions (`UserDefinedTypeFunction.h`).
* Refinements against `*no-refine*`, a sentinel type indicating that no
refinements should occur, are now _always_ resolved, even if the target
of the refinement would be otherwise pending, such as another type
function.
## Autocomplete
* Fixed autocomplete to prefer table property completion to string
singleton completion. In the below example, the types associated with
each member of `foo` will be displayed in autocomplete popups.
```
local foo = {
["Item/Foo"] = 42,
["Item/Bar"] = "it's true",
["Item/Baz"] = true,
}
foo["|"] -- cursor at `|`
```
## Native Codegen
* Fixed native compilation lowering of the new global lookup
instruction, which caused code generation to fail with an error or to
evaluate incorrect results. Issue affected 678-681 releases when all
flags were enabled.
