Sync to upstream/release/591 (#1012)
* Fix a use-after-free bug in the new type cloning algorithm
* Tighten up the type of `coroutine.wrap`. It is now `<A..., R...>(f:
(A...) -> R...) -> ((A...) -> R...)`
* Break `.luaurc` out into a separate library target `Luau.Config`. This
makes it easier for applications to reason about config files without
also depending on the type inference engine.
* Move typechecking limits into `FrontendOptions`. This allows embedders
more finely-grained control over autocomplete's internal time limits.
* Fix stability issue with debugger onprotectederror callback allowing
break in non-yieldable contexts

New solver:

* Initial work toward [Local Type
Inference](0e1082108f/rfcs/local-type-inference.md)
* Introduce a new subtyping test. This will be much nicer than the old
test because it is completely separate both from actual type inference
and from error reporting.

Native code generation:

* Added function to compute iterated dominance frontier
* Optimize barriers in SET_UPVALUE when tag is known
* Cache lua_State::global in a register on A64
* Optimize constant stores in A64 lowering
* Track table array size state to optimize array size checks
* Add split tag/value store into a VM register
* Check that spills can outlive the block only in specific conditions

Sync to upstream/release/589 (#1000)
* Progress toward a diffing algorithm for types. We hope that this will
be useful for writing clearer error messages.
* Add a missing recursion limiter in `Unifier::tryUnifyTables`. This was
causing a crash in certain situations.

    * Weak references are not reported
    * Added tag as a fallback name of non-string table links
* Included top Luau function information in thread name to understand
where thread might be suspended
* Constant folding for `math.pi` and `math.huge` at -O2
* Optimize `string.format` and `%*`
* This change makes string interpolation 1.5x-2x faster depending on the
number and type of formatted components, assuming a few are using
primitive types, and reduces associated GC pressure.

New type checker:

* Initial work toward tracking the upper and lower bounds of types
accurately.

Native code generation (JIT):

* Add IrCmd::CHECK_TRUTHY for improved assert fast-calls
* Do not compute type map for modules without types

Sync to upstream/release/577 (#934)
Lots of things going on this week:

* Fix a crash that could occur in the presence of a cyclic union. We
shouldn't be creating cyclic unions, but we shouldn't be crashing when
they arise either.
* Minor cleanup of `luau_precall`
* Internal change to make L->top handling slightly more uniform
* Optimize SETGLOBAL & GETGLOBAL fallback C functions.
* https://github.com/Roblox/luau/pull/929
* The syntax to the `luau-reduce` commandline tool has changed. It now
accepts a script, a command to execute, and an error to search for. It
no longer automatically passes the script to the command which makes it
a lot more flexible. Also be warned that it edits the script it is
passed **in place**. Do not point it at something that is not in source
control!

New solver

* Switch to a greedier but more fallible algorithm for simplifying union
and intersection types that are created as part of refinement
calculation. This has much better and more predictable performance.
* Fix a constraint cycle in recursive function calls.
* Much improved inference of binary addition. Functions like `function
add(x, y) return x + y end` can now be inferred without annotations. We
also accurately typecheck calls to functions like this.
* Many small bugfixes surrounding things like table indexers
* Add support for indexers on class types. This was previously added to
the old solver; we now add it to the new one for feature parity.

JIT

* https://github.com/Roblox/luau/pull/931
* Fuse key.value and key.tt loads for CEHCK_SLOT_MATCH in A64
* Implement remaining aliases of BFM for A64
* Implement new callinfo flag for A64
* Add instruction simplification for int->num->int conversion chains
* Don't even load execdata for X64 calls
* Treat opcode fallbacks the same as manually written fallbacks

Add CodeGen C API (#931)
I'd like to experiment with the codegen feature (currently experimental)
and need a public C API for this.

This PR addresses this.

* `ClassType` can now have an indexer defined on it. This allows custom
types to be used in `t[x]` expressions.
* Fixed search for closest executable breakpoint line. Previously,
breakpoints might have been skipped in `else` blocks at the end of a
function
* Fixed how unification is performed for two optional types `a? <: b?`,
previously it might have unified either 'a' or 'b' with 'nil'. Note that
this fix is not enabled by default yet (see the list in
`ExperimentalFlags.h`)

In the new type solver, a concept of 'Type Families' has been
introduced.
Type families can be thought of as type aliases with custom type
inference/reduction logic included with them.
For example, we can have an `Add<T, U>` type family that will resolve
the type that is the result of adding two values together.
This will help type inference to figure out what 'T' and 'U' might be
when explicit type annotations are not provided.
In this update we don't define any type families, but they will be added
in the near future.
It is also possible for Luau embedders to define their own type families
in the global/environment scope.

Other changes include:
* Fixed scope used to find out which generic types should be included in
the function generic type list
* Fixed a crash after cyclic bound types were created during unification

And in native code generation (jit):
* Use of arm64 target on M1 now requires macOS 13
* Entry into native code has been optimized. This is especially
important for coroutine call/pcall performance as they involve going
through a C call frame
* LOP_LOADK(X) translation into IR has been improved to enable type
tag/constant propagation
* arm64 can use integer immediate values to synthesize floating-point
values
* x64 assembler removes duplicate 64bit numbers from the data section to
save space
* Linux `perf` can now be used to profile native Luau code (when running
with --codegen-perf CLI argument)

* `Luau.Analyze.CLI` now has experimental support for concurrent type
checking. Use the option `-jN` where `N` is the number of threads to
spawn.
* Improve typechecking performance by ~17% by making the function
`Luau::follow` much more efficient.
* Tighten up the type of `os.date`
* Removed `ParseOptions::allowTypeAnnotations` and
`ParseOptions::supportContinueStatement`

New solver

* Improve the reliability of function overload resolution
* More work toward supporting parallel type checking
* Fix a bug in inference of `==` and `~=` which would erroneously infer
that the operands were `boolean`
* Better error reporting when `for...in` loops are used incorrectly.

CodeGen

* Fix unwind registration when libunwind is used on Linux
* Fixed replaced IR instruction use count
* Convert X64 unwind info generation to standard prologue
* Implement A64 unwind info support for Dwarf2
* Live in/out data for linear blocks is now created

* Added a limit on how many instructions the Compiler can safely produce
(reported by @TheGreatSageEqualToHeaven)

C++ API Changes:
* With work started on read-only and write-only properties,
`Property::type` member variable has been replaced with `TypeId type()`
and `setType(TypeId)` functions.
* New `LazyType` unwrap callback now has a `void` return type, all
that's required from the callback is to write into `unwrapped` field.

In our work on the new type solver, the following issues were fixed:

* Work has started to support https://github.com/Roblox/luau/pull/77 and
https://github.com/Roblox/luau/pull/79
* Refinements are no longer applied on l-values, removing some
false-positive errors
* Improved overload resolution against expected result type
* `Frontend::prepareModuleScope` now works in the new solver
* Cofinite strings are now comparable

And these are the changes in native code generation (JIT):

* Fixed MIN_NUM and MAX_NUM constant fold when one of the arguments is
NaN
* Added constant folding for number conversions and bit operations
* Value spilling and rematerialization is now supported on arm64
* Improved FASTCALL2K IR generation to support second argument constant
* Added value numbering and load/store propagation optimizations

* Work toward affording parallel type checking
* The interface to `LazyType` has changed:
* `LazyType` now takes a second callback that is passed the `LazyType&`
itself. This new callback is responsible for populating the field
`TypeId LazyType::unwrapped`. Multithreaded implementations should
acquire a lock in this callback.
* Modules now retain their `humanReadableNames`. This reduces the number
of cases where type checking has to call back to a `ModuleResolver`.
* https://github.com/Roblox/luau/pull/902
* Add timing info to the Luau REPL compilation output

We've also fixed some bugs and crashes in the new solver as we march
toward readiness.
* Thread ICEs (Internal Compiler Errors) back to the Frontend properly
* Refinements are no longer applied to lvalues
* More miscellaneous stability improvements

Lots of activity in the new JIT engine:

* Implement register spilling/restore for A64
* Correct Luau IR value restore location tracking
* Fixed use-after-free in x86 register allocator spill restore
* Use btz for bit tests
* Finish branch assembly support for A64
* Codesize and performance improvements for A64
* The bit32 library has been implemented for arm and x64

Once again, all of our changes this week are for new type solver and the
JIT.

In the new type solver, we fixed cyclic type alias handling and multiple
stability issues.

In the JIT, our main progress was for arm64, where, after lowering 36%
of instructions, we start seeing first Luau functions executing
natively.
For x64, we performed code cleanup and refactoring to allow for future
optimizations.

All of our changes this week have been focused on the new type solver
and the JIT.

As we march toward feature parity with the old solver, we've tightened
up a bunch of lingering issues with overload resolution, unsealed
tables, and type normalization. We've also fixed a bunch of crashes and
assertion failures in the new solver.

On the JIT front, we've started work on an A64 backend, improved the IR
analysis in a bunch of cases, and implemented assembly generation for
the builtin functions `type()` and `typeof()`.

* A small subset of control-flow refinements have been added to
recognize type options that are unreachable after a
conditional/unconditional code block. (Fixes
https://github.com/Roblox/luau/issues/356).

Some examples:
```lua
local function f(x: string?)
    if not x then return end

    -- x is 'string' here
end
```
Throwing calls like `error` or `assert(false)` instead of 'return' are
also recognized.
Existing complex refinements like type/typeof and tagged union checks
are expected to work, among others.

To enable this feature, `LuauTinyControlFlowAnalysis` exclusion has to
be removed from `ExperimentalFlags.h`.
If will become enabled unconditionally in the near future.

* Linter has been integrated into the typechecker analysis so that
type-aware lint warnings can work in any mode
`Frontend::lint` methods were deprecated, `Frontend::check` has to be
used instead with `runLintChecks` option set.
Resulting lint warning are located inside `CheckResult`.

* Fixed large performance drop and increased memory consumption when
array is filled at an offset (Fixes
https://github.com/Roblox/luau/issues/590)
* Part of [Type error suppression
RFC](https://github.com/Roblox/luau/blob/master/rfcs/type-error-suppression.md)
was implemented making subtyping checks with `any` type transitive.

---
In our work on the new type-solver:
* `--!nocheck` mode no longer reports type errors
* New solver will not be used for `--!nonstrict` modules until all
issues with strict mode typechecking are fixed
* Added control-flow aware type refinements mentioned earlier

In native code generation:
* `LOP_NAMECALL` has been translated to IR
* `type` and `typeof` builtin fastcalls have been translated to
IR/assembly
* Additional steps were taken towards arm64 support

* Fix #817 
* Fix #850 
* Optimize math.floor/ceil/round with SSE4.1
    * Results in a ~7-9% speedup on the math-cordic benchmark.
* Optimized table.sort.
* table.sort is now ~4.1x faster (when not using a predicate) and ~2.1x
faster when using a simple predicate. Performance may improve further in
the future.
* Reorganize the memory ownership of builtin type definitions.
* This is a small initial step toward affording parallel typechecking.

The new type solver is coming along nicely. We are working on fixing
crashes and bugs.

A few major changes to native codegen landed this week:
* Fixed lowering of Luau IR mod instruction when first argument is a
constant
* Added VM register data-flow/capture analysis
* Fixed issues with optimizations in unreachable blocks

* Fixed incorrect lexeme generated for string parts in the middle of an
interpolated string (Fixes https://github.com/Roblox/luau/issues/744)
* DeprecatedApi lint can report some issues without type inference
information
* Fixed performance of autocomplete requests when suggestions have large
intersection types (Solves
https://github.com/Roblox/luau/discussions/847)
* Marked `table.getn`/`foreach`/`foreachi` as deprecated ([RFC:
Deprecate
table.getn/foreach/foreachi](https://github.com/Roblox/luau/blob/master/rfcs/deprecate-table-getn-foreach.md))
* With -O2 optimization level, we now optimize builtin calls based on
known argument/return count.
Note that this change can be observable if `getfenv/setfenv` is used to
substitute a builtin, especially if arity is different.
Fastcall heavy tests show a 1-2% improvement.
* Luau can now be built with clang-cl (Fixes
https://github.com/Roblox/luau/issues/736)

We also made many improvements to our experimental components.

For our new type solver:
* Overhauled data flow analysis system, fixed issues with 'repeat'
loops, global variables and type annotations
* Type refinements now work on generic table indexing with a string
literal
* Type refinements will properly track potentially 'nil' values (like
t[x] for a missing key) and their further refinements
* Internal top table type is now isomorphic to `{}` which fixes issues
when `typeof(v) == 'table'` type refinement is handled
* References to non-existent types in type annotations no longer resolve
to 'error' type like in old solver
* Improved handling of class unions in property access expressions
* Fixed default type packs
* Unsealed tables can now have metatables
* Restored expected types for function arguments

And for native code generation:
* Added min and max IR instructions mapping to vminsd/vmaxsd on x64
* We now speculatively extract direct execution fast-paths based on
expected types of expressions which provides better optimization
opportunities inside a single basic block
* Translated existing math fastcalls to IR form to improve tag guard
removal and constant propagation

We've made a few small changes to reduce the amount of stack we use when
typechecking nested method calls (eg `foo:bar():baz():quux()`).

We've also fixed a small bytecode compiler issue that caused us to emit
redundant jump instructions in code that conditionally uses `break` or
`continue`.

On the new solver, we've switched to a new, better way to handle
augmentations to unsealed tables. We've also made some substantial
improvements to type inference and error reporting on function calls.
These things should both be on par with the old solver now.

The main improvements to the native code generator have been elimination
of some redundant type tag checks. Also, we are starting to inline
particular fastcalls directly to IR.

This week we only have updates to new type solver and JIT. Both projects
are still in the process of being built out. Neither are ready for
general use yet.

In the new solver, we fixed issues with recursive type aliases.
Duplicated type parameters are once again reported, exported types are
being recorder and function argument names are placed inside function
types.
We also made improvements to restore parts of bidirectional type
tracking.

On native code generation side, namecall instruction lowering was fixed,
we fixed inconsistencies in IR command definitions and added utility
function to help with constant folding.

* Fix a bug where reading a property from an unsealed table caused
inference to improperly infer the existence of that property.
* Fix #827

We have also made a lot of progress on the new solver and the JIT. Both
projects are still in the process of being built out. Neither are ready
for general use yet.

We are mostly working to tighten up how the new solver handles
refinements and updates to unsealed tables to bring it up to the same
level as the old solver.

* Fixed rare use-after-free in analysis during table unification

A lot of work these past months went into two new Luau components:
* A near full rewrite of the typechecker using a new deferred constraint
resolution system
* Native code generation for AoT/JiT compilation of VM bytecode into x64
(avx)/arm64 instructions

Both of these components are far from finished and we don't provide
documentation on building and using them at this point.
However, curious community members expressed interest in learning about
changes that go into these components each week, so we are now listing
them here in the 'sync' pull request descriptions.

New typechecker can be enabled by setting
DebugLuauDeferredConstraintResolution flag to 'true'.
It is considered unstable right now, so try it at your own risk.
Even though it already provides better type inference than the current
one in some cases, our main goal right now is to reach feature parity
with current typechecker.
Features which improve over the capabilities of the current typechecker
are marked as '(NEW)'.

Changes to new typechecker:
* Regular for loop index and parameters are now typechecked
* Invalid type annotations on local variables are ignored to improve
autocomplete
* Fixed missing autocomplete type suggestions for function arguments
* Type reduction is now performed to produce simpler types to be
presented to the user (error messages, custom LSPs)
* Internally, complex types like '((number | string) & ~(false?)) |
string' can be produced, which is just 'string | number' when simplified
* Fixed spots where support for unknown and never types was missing
* (NEW) Length operator '#' is now valid to use on top table type, this
type comes up when doing typeof(x) == "table" guards and isn't available
in current typechecker

---
Changes to native code generation:
* Additional math library fast calls are now lowered to x64: math.ldexp,
math.round, math.frexp, math.modf, math.sign and math.clamp
