Implement RFC: 2-component vector constructor. This includes 2-component
overload for `vector.create` and associated fastcall function, and its
type definition. These features are controlled by a new feature flag
`LuauVector2Constructor`. Additionally constant folding now supports two
components when `LuauVector2Constants` feature flag is set.
Note: this work does not include changes to CodeGen. Thus calls to
`vector.create` with only two arguments are not natively compiled
currently. This is left for future work.
# General
All code has been re-formatted by `clang-format`; this is not
mechanically enforced, so Luau may go out-of-sync over the course of the
year.
# New Solver
* Track free types interior to a block of code on `Scope`, which should
reduce the number of free types that remain un-generalized after type
checking is complete (e.g.: less errors like `'a <: number is
incompatible with number`).
# Autocomplete
* Fragment autocomplete now does *not* provide suggestions within
comments (matching non-fragment autocomplete behavior).
* Autocomplete now respects iteration and recursion limits (some hangs
will now early exit with a "unification too complex error," some crashes
will now become internal complier exceptions).
# Runtime
* Add a limit to how many Luau codegen slot nodes addresses can be in
use at the same time (fixes#1605, fixes#1558).
* Added constant folding for vector arithmetic (fixes#1553).
* Added support for `buffer.readbits` and `buffer.writebits` (see:
https://github.com/luau-lang/rfcs/pull/18).

This change implements math.lerp RFC with C function definition, builtin
function, builtin constant folding and tests.
The tests validate a few lerp properties by providing counter-examples
for popular lerp implementations; the testing is of course not
exhaustive, as exhaustive testing was done offline using fuzzing.
Type definitions will be updated separately.
Codegen support will be implemented separately: it requires new IR for
conditional
selects to represent the desired logic without using a branch.
## 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

* 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.

* `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

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)

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

### What's new
* A bug in exception handling in GCC(11/12/13) on MacOS prevents our
test suite from running.
* Parser now supports leading `|` or `&` when declaring `Union` and
`Intersection` types (#1286)

[rfc](https://github.com/luau-lang/rfcs/pull/30)
* With this change, expressions such as `local x = @native function(x)
return x+1 end` and `f(@native function(x) return x+1 end)` are now
valid.
* Added support for `@native` attribute - we can now force native
compilation of individual functions if the `@native` attribute is
specified before the `function` keyword (works for lambdas too).
### New Solver
* Many fixes in the new solver for crashes and instability

# What's changed?
### New Type Solver
- Unification of two fresh types no longer binds them together.
- Replaced uses of raw `emplace` with `emplaceType` to catch cyclic
bound types when they are created.
- `SetIndexerConstraint` is blocked until the indexer result type is not
blocked.
- Fix a case where a blocked type got past the constraint solver.
- Searching for free types should no longer traverse into `ClassType`s.
- Fix a corner case that could result in the non-testable type `~{}`.
- Fix incorrect flagging when `any` was a parameter of some checked
function in nonstrict type checker.

# What's changed?
* Improved the actual message for the type errors for `cannot call
non-function` when attempting to call a union of functions/callable
tables. The error now correctly explains the issue is an inability to
determine the return type of the call in this situation.
* Resolve an issue where tables and metatables were not correctly being
cloned during instantiation (fixes#1176).
* Refactor `luaM_getnextgcopage` to `luaM_getnextpage` (generally
removing `gco` prefix where appropriate).
* Optimize `table.move` between tables for large ranges of elements.
* Reformat a bunch of code automatically using `clang-format`.
### New Type Solver
* Clean up minimally-used or unused constraints in the constraint solver
(`InstantiationConstraint`, `SetOpConstraint`,
`SingletonOrTopTypeConstraint`).
* Add a builtin `singleton` type family to replace
`SingletonOrTopTypeConstraint` when inferring refinements.
* Fixed a crash involving type path reasoning by recording when type
family reduction has taken place in the path.
* Improved constraint ordering by blocking on unreduced types families
that are not yet proven uninhabitable.
* Improved the handling of `SetIndexerConstraints` for both better
inference quality and to resolve crashes.
* Fix a crash when normalizing cyclic unions of intersections.
* Fix a crash when normalizing an intersection with the negation of
`unknown`.
* Fix a number of crashes caused by missing `follow` calls on `TypeId`s.
* Changed type family reduction to correctly use a semantic notion of
uninhabited types, rather than checking for `never` types specifically.
* Refactor the `union` and `intersect` type families to be variadic.
### Native Code Generation
* Improve translation for userdata key get/set and userdata/vector
namecall.
* Provide `[top level]` and `[anonymous]` as function names to
`FunctionStats` as appropriate when no function name is available.
* Disable unwind support on Android platforms since it is unsupported.
*

# What's Changed
## New Type Solver
- Many more fixes to crashes, assertions, and hangs
- Annotated locals now countermand the inferred types of locals, meaning
that for a type `type MyType = number | string`, `local foo : MyType =
5` behaves the same as `local foo = 5 :: MyType`, where before, foo
would be assigned the type of the value on the rhs.
- Type Normalization now respects resource limits.
- Subtyping between classes and cyclic tables now supported
## Native Code Generation
- Work on the Native Code Generation(NCG) allocator continues

* When a local is captured in a function, don't add a new entry to the
`DfgScope::bindings` if the capture occurs within a loop.
* Fix a poor performance characteristic during unification by not trying
to simplify an intersection.
* Fix a case of multiple constraints mutating the same blocked type
causing incorrect inferences.
* Fix a case of assertion failure when overload resolution encounters a
return typepack mismatch.
* When refining a property of the top `table` type, we no longer signal
an unknown property error.
* Fix a misuse of free types when trying to infer the type of a
subscript expression.
* Fix a case of assertion failure when trying to resolve an overload
from `never`.
### Native Code Generation
* Fix dead store optimization issues caused by partial stores.

# What's changed?
* Luau allocation scheme was changed to handle allocations in 513-1024
byte range internally without falling back to global allocator
* coroutine/thread creation no longer requires any global allocations,
making it up to 15% faster (vs libc malloc)
* table construction for 17-32 keys or 33-64 array elements is up to 30%
faster (vs libc malloc)
### New Type Solver
* Cyclic unary negation type families are reduced to `number` when
possible
* Class types are skipped when searching for free types in unifier to
improve performance
* Fixed issues with table type inference when metatables are present
* Improved inference of iteration loop types
* Fixed an issue with bidirectional inference of method calls
* Type simplification will now preserve error suppression markers
### Native Code Generation
* Fixed TAG_VECTOR skip optimization to not break instruction use counts
(broken optimization wasn't included in 614)
* Fixed missing side-effect when optimizing generic loop preparation
instruction
