Currently calling `luaL_sandbox` on Lua instance without loaded strlib
causes crash (assertion).
It happens because inside `luaL_sandbox` there is no check that
metatable for strings is present.
## What's changed
- `bit32.byteswap` added
([RFC](4f543ec23b/docs/function-bit32-byteswap.md))
- Buffer library implementation
([RFC](4f543ec23b/docs/type-byte-buffer.md))
- Fixed a missing `stdint.h` include
- Fixed parser limiter for recursive type annotations being kind of
weird (fixes#645)
### Native Codegen
- Fixed a pair of issues when lowering `bit32.extract`
- Fixed a narrow edge case that could result in an infinite loop without
an interruption
- Fixed a negative array out-of-bounds access issue
- Temporarily reverted linear block predecessor value propagation
### New type solver
- We now type check assignments to annotated variables
- Fixed some test cases under local type inference
- Moved `isPending` checks for type families to improve performance
- Optimized our process for testing if a free type is sufficiently
solved
- Removed "none ptr" from lea instruction disassembly logging
### Build system & tooling
- CMake configuration now validates dependencies to maintain separation
between components
- Improvements to the fuzzer coverage
- Deduplicator for fuzzed callstacks

- Improve error recovery during type checking
- Initial (not fully complete) implementation for singleton types (RFC RFC: Singleton types #37)
- Implement a C-friendly interface for compiler (luacode.h)
- Remove C++ features from lua.h (removed default arguments from luau_load and lua_pushcfunction)
- Fix lua_breakpoint behavior when enabled=false
- Implement coroutine.close (RFC RFC: coroutine.close #88)
Note, this introduces small breaking changes in lua.h:
- luau_load env argument is now required, pass an extra 0
- lua_pushcfunction now must be called with 3 arguments; if you were calling it with 2 arguments, pass an extra NULL; if you were calling it with 4, use lua_pushcclosure.
These changes are necessary to make sure lua.h can be used from pure C - the future release will make it possible by adding an option to luaconf.h to change function name mangling to be C-compatible. We don't anticipate breaking the FFI interface in the future, but this change was necessary to restore C compatibility.
