# General
* Expose an optional `get_alias` API as an alternative to `get_config`
in Luau.Require and Luau.RequireNavigator.
* Improve the Luau CLI's virtual filesystem implementation to fix bugs
related to `init.luau`. Fixes
https://github.com/luau-lang/luau/issues/1816
# New Type Solver
* Avoid double reporting errors when erroneous arguments are provided to
type functions.
* Fix some instances of unresovable cyclic type functions in loops by
only considering the first loop cycles. This results in some type
inference inaccuracies when the type of a variable in loop through
multiple iterations. Fixes
https://github.com/luau-lang/luau/issues/1413.
* Better generalize free types that have meaningful lower and upper
bounds, especially for table indexers.
* Report more specific errors when assigning or returning table literal
types, instead of citing the *entire* table type.
* Inference for functions with generic type packs is greatly improved.
* Fix some internal compiler exceptions when using type-stating
functions like `table.freeze` in `if _ then _ else _` expressions and
short circuiting binary operations.
* More consistently simplify unions of primitive types, especially in
array-like and dictionary-like tables.
* Fix a crash when type checking an erroneous type alias containing
`typeof` with a type assertion expression, as in:
```
type MyTable = {}
-- This will error at type checking time as it's a duplicate
type MyTable = typeof(setmetatable(SomeTable :: {}, SomeMetaTable));
```
* Fix a crash when inferring the type of an index expression where the
indexee is invalid (e.g. `nil`).
# Runtime
* Avoid throwing an exception from `luau_load` if we run out of memory.
* Type functions are no longer compiled and included in bytecode. Fixes
#1817.
* Fix some instances of Luau C API functions reading invalid debug
information (generally when the first or last instruction of a block was
being inspected). Fixes#1369.
* Avoid potential signed integer overflow when doing bounds checks on
tables.
* Support 16 byte aligned userdata objects when system allocation
alignment is also 16 bytes.
* Fix memory leaks in `Luau.Require` when using VM build with no
exceptions. Fixes#1827.

### What's new
* Added lint warning for using redundant `@native` attributes on
functions inside a `--!native` module
* Improved typechecking speed in old solver for modules with large types
### New Solver
* Fixed the length type function sealing the table prematurely
* Fixed crashes caused by general table indexing expressions
### VM
* Added support for a specialized 3-argument fast-call instruction to
improve performance of `vector` constructor, `buffer` writes and a few
`bit32` methods

# What's changed?
* Support for new 'require by string' RFC with relative paths and
aliases in now enabled in Luau REPL application
### New Type Solver
* Fixed assertion failure on generic table keys (`[expr] = value`)
* Fixed an issue with type substitution traversing into the substituted
parts during type instantiation
* Fixed crash in union simplification when that union contained
uninhabited unions and other types inside
* Union types in binary type families like `add<a | b, c>` are expanded
into `add<a, c> | add<b, c>` to handle
* Added handling for type family solving creating new type families
* Fixed a bug with normalization operation caching types with unsolved
parts
* Tables with uninhabited properties are now simplified to `never`
* Fixed failures found by fuzzer
### Native Code Generation
* Added support for shared code generation between multiple Luau VM
instances
* Fixed issue in load-store propagation and new tagged LOAD_TVALUE
instructions
* Fixed issues with partial register dead store elimination causing
failures in GC assists

* 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
