## What's Changed?
* Optimized the vector dot product by up to 24%
* Allow for x/y/z/X/Y/Z vector field access by registering a `vector`
metatable
with an `__index` method (Fixes#1521)
* Fixed a bug preventing consistent recovery from parse errors in table
types.
* Optimized `k*n` and `k+n` when types are known
* Allow fragment autocomplete to handle cases like the automatic
insertion of
parens, keywords, strings, etc., while maintaining a correct relative
positioning
### New Solver
* Allow for `nil` assignment to tables and classes with indexers

## What's new?
* Add support for mixed-mode type checking, which allows modules checked
in the old type solver to be checked and autocompleted by the new one.
* Generalize `RequireResolver` to support require-by-string semantics in
`luau-analyze`.
* Fix a bug in incremental autocomplete where `DefId`s associated with
index expressions were not correctly picked up.
* Fix a bug that prevented "complex" types in generic parameters (for
example, `local x: X<(() -> ())?>`).
### Issues fixed
* #1507
* #1518

### What's New?
* Fragment Autocomplete: a new API allows for type checking a small
fragment of code against an existing file, significantly speeding up
autocomplete performance in large files.
### New Solver
* E-Graphs have landed: this is an ongoing approach to make the new type
solver simplify types in a more consistent and principled manner, based
on similar work (see: https://egraphs-good.github.io/).
* Adds support for exporting / local user type functions (previously
they were always exported).
* Fixes a set of bugs in which the new solver will fail to complete
inference for simple expressions with just literals and operators.
### General Updates
* Requiring a path with a ".lua" or ".luau" extension will now have a
bespoke error suggesting to remove said extension.
* Fixes a bug in which whether two `Luau::Symbol`s are equal depends on
whether the new solver is enabled.

* New `vector` library! See https://rfcs.luau.org/vector-library.html
for details
* Replace the use of non-portable `strnlen` with `memchr`. `strnlen` is
not part of any C or C++ standard.
* Introduce `lua_newuserdatataggedwithmetatable` for faster tagged
userdata creation of userdata with metatables registered with
`lua_setuserdatametatable`
Old Solver
* It used to be the case that a module's result type would
unconditionally be inferred to be `any` if it imported any module that
participates in any import cycle. This is now fixed.
New Solver
* Improve inference of `table.freeze`: We now infer read-only properties
on tables after they have been frozen.
* We now correctly flag cases where `string.format` is called with 0
arguments.
* Fix a bug in user-defined type functions where table properties could
be lost if the table had a metatable
* Reset the random number seed for each evaluation of a type function
* We now retry subtyping arguments if it failed due to hidden variadics.

## What's new
* Added `math.map` function to the standard library, based on
https://rfcs.luau-lang.org/function-math-map.html
* `FileResolver` can provide an implementation of
`getRequireSuggestions` to provide auto-complete suggestions for
require-by-string
## New Solver
* In user-defined type functions, `readproperty` and `writeproperty`
will return `nil` instead of erroring if property is not found
* Fixed incorrect scope of variadic arguments in the data-flow graph
* Fixed multiple assertion failures

# General Updates
Fix an old solver crash that occurs in the presence of cyclic
`requires()`
## New Solver
- Improvements to Luau user-defined type function library
- Avoid asserting on unexpected metatable types
- Properties in user defined type functions should have a consistent
iteration order - in this case it is insertion ordering
# Runtime
- Track VM allocations for telemetry

# General Updates
* Fix some cases where documentation symbols would not be available when
mouseovering at certain positions in the code
* Scaffolding to help embedders have more control over how `typeof(x)`
refines types
* Refinements to require-by-string semantics. See
https://github.com/luau-lang/rfcs/pull/56 for details.
* Fix for https://github.com/luau-lang/luau/issues/1405
# New Solver
* Fix many crashes (thanks you for your bug reports!)
* Type functions can now call each other
* Type functions all evaluate in a single VM. This should improve
typechecking performance and reduce memory use.
* `export type function` is now forbidden and fails with a clear error
message
* Type functions that access locals in the surrounding environment are
now properly a parse error
* You can now use `:setindexer(types.never, types.never)` to delete an
indexer from a table type.

In this update, we continue to improve the overall stability of the new
type solver. We're also shipping some early bits of two new features,
one of the language and one of the analysis API: user-defined type
functions and an incremental typechecking API.
If you use the new solver and want to use all new fixes included in this
release, you have to reference an additional Luau flag:
```c++
LUAU_DYNAMIC_FASTINT(LuauTypeSolverRelease)
```
And set its value to `645`:
```c++
DFInt::LuauTypeSolverRelease.value = 645; // Or a higher value for future updates
```
## New Solver
* Fix a crash where scopes are incorrectly accessed cross-module after
they've been deallocated by appropriately zeroing out associated scope
pointers for free types, generic types, table types, etc.
* Fix a crash where we were incorrectly caching results for bound types
in generalization.
* Eliminated some unnecessary intermediate allocations in the constraint
solver and type function infrastructure.
* Built some initial groundwork for an incremental typecheck API for use
by language servers.
* Built an initial technical preview for [user-defined type
functions](https://rfcs.luau-lang.org/user-defined-type-functions.html),
more work still to come (including calling type functions from other
type functions), but adventurous folks wanting to experiment with it can
try it out by enabling `FFlag::LuauUserDefinedTypeFunctionsSyntax` and
`FFlag::LuauUserDefinedTypeFunction` in their local environment. Special
thanks to @joonyoo181 who built up all the initial infrastructure for
this during his internship!
## Miscellaneous changes
* Fix a compilation error on Ubuntu (fixes#1437)

## New Solver
* Fixed a debug assertion failure in autocomplete (Fixes#1391)
* Fixed type function distribution issue which transformed `len<>` and
`unm<>` into `not<>` (Fixes#1416)
* Placed a limit on the possible normalized table intersection size as a
temporary measure to avoid hangs and out-of-memory issues for complex
type refinements
* Internal recursion limits are now respected in the subtyping
operations and in autocomplete, to avoid stack overflow crashes
* Fixed false positive errors on assignments to tables whose indexers
are unions of strings
* Fixed memory corruption crashes in subtyping of generic types
containing other generic types in their bounds

Fix for https://github.com/luau-lang/luau/issues/1406
While it is good to let ``index`` wait for the pending-expansion. To
re-produce the issue you need more than just this code:
https://i.imgur.com/b3OmUGF.png
It needs this, else it won't crash.
```lua
local function ProblemCauser(key: Keys, value)
PlayerData[key] = value
end
```
But regarding "pending things", I'd recommend **generalized functions**
for sanity checks like these, since there will be more cases of similar
issues I believe. But I am 100% sure that eventually this issue here can
maybe be prevented if looking at the Constraints. _(And optimization)_
Not sure if ``index`` needs the table fully completed, or if it is
preferred that the info is available based on **how much info is
available at the current position in the code**.
But if this gets done, I hope that they'll be connected to the Solver
Logger, because I actually refined mine with colors and more info _(yet
need to finish that)_ to understand the Luau Source Code more and to
debug issues.

Fixes https://github.com/luau-lang/luau/issues/1387
Was suggested by @alexmccord
I changed ``singletons[0]`` to ``singletons.front()``, unsure if that
makes a huge difference, and then I added the rest of the things needed
for the return type.
Maybe it's also the ideal location since doing it before looping through
``keys`` won't add the string into the type arena.
I put comments next to it based on how I thought it would make sense.
``LUAU_ASSERT`` seems to trigger when there's only one entry being put
inside a UnionType. It's as if it was put there for quality.
Allow edits by maintainers is enabled.
I tested this with a quick Unit Test something like
```lua
local test: keyof<typeof({a="test"})>
```
## New Solver
* The type functions `keyof` and `index` now also walk the inheritance
chain when they are used on class types like Roblox instances.
---------

### What's new
* Fixed many of the false positive errors in indexing of table unions
and table intersections
* It is now possible to run custom checks over Luau AST during
typechecking by setting `customModuleCheck` in `FrontendOptions`
* Fixed codegen issue on arm, where number->vector cast could corrupt
that number value for the next time it's read
### New Solver
* `error` type now behaves as the bottom type during subtyping checks
* Fixed the scope that is used in subtyping with generic types
* Fixed `astOriginalCallTypes` table often used by LSP to match the old
solver

# What's Changed?
- Variety of bugfixes in the new solver
## New Solver
- Fix an issue where we would hit a recursion limit when applying long
chains of type refinements.
- Weaken the types of `table.freeze` and `table.clone` in the new solver
so we can accept common code patterns like `local a = table.freeze({x=5,
x=0})` at the expense of accepting code like `table.freeze(true)`.
- Don't warn when the # operator is used on a value of type never
## VM
- Fix a bug in lua_resume where too many values might be removed from
stack when resume throws an error

# What's Changed?
- Code refactoring with a new clang-format
- More bug fixes / test case fixes in the new solver
## New Solver
- More precise telemetry collection of `any` types
- Simplification of two completely disjoint tables combines them into a
single table that inherits all properties / indexers
- Refining a `never & <anything>` does not produce type family types nor
constraints
- Silence "inference failed to complete" error when it is the only error
reported
