Right now `getDocumentationSymbol` on an overloaded class method or
table prop just gives the prop name, not prepended with `/overload/ +
toString(overload)`.
This causes the incorrect symbol to be used for `table.insert`,
`BrickColor.new`, `Color3.new` etc. (present in

* Support `["prop"]` syntax on class definitions in definition files.
(#704)
* Improve type checking performance for complex overloaded functions
* Fix rare cases of incorrect stack traces for out of memory errors at
runtime
Name the parameters used in `math` lib
This is mainly done to highlight the particular confusion for
`math.atan2`, where `y` comes before `x`, but this might not be
immediately obvious.
And then I added the rest of the names for consistency.
Note: I didn't add names to `math.random` as it's currently typed as
`(number?, number?) -> number`. Naming it `min` and `max` is technically
incorrect for the 1 argument version.
Maybe it should be typed as an intersection instead?
`Frontend.markDirty()` does not correctly mark reverse dependencies that
are not immediate as dirty.
This is because it would keep adding the reverse deps of `name` into the
queue to mark as dirty, instead of the reverse deps of `next`
* Reoptimized math.min/max/bit32 builtins assuming at least 2 arguments are used (1-2% lift on some benchmarks)
* Type errors that mention function types no longer have redundant parenthesis around return type
* Luau REPL now supports --compile=remarks which displays the source code with optimization remarks embedded as comments
* Builtin calls are slightly faster when called with 1-2 arguments (~1% improvement in some benchmarks)
- Fix rare type checking bugs with invalid generic types escaping the
module scope

issues with unions/intersections in type checker

lists

and profiling overhead are now 20% faster/smaller)
- Improve performance of polymorphic comparisons (1-2% lift on some
benchmarks)
- Improve performance of closure creation (1-2% lift on some benchmarks)
- Improve string comparison performance (4% lift on string sorting)
- Type aliases can no longer override primitive types; attempts to do
that will result in a type error
- Fix misleading type error messages for mismatches in expression list
length during assignment
- Fix incorrect type name display in certain cases
- setmetatable/getmetatable are now ~2x faster
- tools/perfstat.py can be used to display statistics about profiles
captured via --profile switch
- Improve type error messages for argument count mismatch in certain
cases
- Fix type checking variadic returns when the type is incompatible which
type checked in certain cases
- Reduce size of upvalue objects by 8 bytes on 64-bit platforms
- Reduce I$ footprint of interpreter by 1.5KB
- Reduce GC pause during atomic stage for programs with a lot of threads
- Remove support for bytecode v2
- Remove type definitions of
`utf8.nfcnormalize`/`nfdnormalize`/`graphemes` that aren't supported by
standalone Luau library
- Add `lua_costatus` to retrieve extended thread status (similar to
`coroutine.status`)
- Improve GC sweeping performance (2-10% improvement on allocation-heavy
benchmarks)
- Improve ComparisonPrecedence lint suggestions for three-way comparisons (X < Y < Z)
- Improve type checking stability
- Improve location information for errors when parsing invalid type annotations
- Compiler now generates bytecode version 3 in all configurations
- Improve performance of comparisons against numeric constants on AArch64
- Fix DeprecatedGlobal warning text in cases when the global is deprecated without a suggested alternative
- Fix an off-by-one error in type error text for incorrect use of string.format
- Reduce stack consumption further during parsing, hopefully eliminating stack overflows during parsing/compilation for good
- Mark interpolated string support as experimental (requires --fflags=LuauInterpolatedStringBaseSupport to enable)
- Simplify garbage collection treatment of upvalues, reducing cache misses during sweeping stage and reducing the cost of upvalue assignment (SETUPVAL); supersedes #643
- Simplify garbage collection treatment of sleeping threads
- Simplify sweeping of alive threads, reducing cache misses during sweeping stage
- Simplify management of string buffers, removing redundant linked list operations
Implements the string interpolation RFC (#165).
Adds the string interpolation as per the RFC.
```lua
local name = "world"
print(`Hello {name}!`) -- Hello world!

Fixes a bug where the environment scope is not passed to the autocomplete typechecker, so environment-related types are not provided.
This caused an issue where `getModuleEnvironment` returns `typeChecker.globalScope` when there is no environment. We pass this through to `typeCheckerForAutocomplete.check()` then environmentscope is no longer nullopt and it will use `typeChecker.globalScope` instead of falling back to `typeCheckerForAutocomplete.globalScope`.
This is solved by passing `forAutocomplete` to `getModuleEnvironment` so it falls back to the autocomplete global scope if none found.
- Fix autocomplete not suggesting globals defined after the cursor (fixes#622)
- Improve type checker stability
- Reduce parser C stack consumption which fixes some stack overflow crashes on deeply nested sources
- Improve performance of bit32.extract/replace when width is implied (~3% faster chess)
- Improve performance of bit32.extract when field/width are constants (~10% faster base64)
- Heap dump now annotates thread stacks with local variable/function names
Closes#599
Not sure if these context definitions are distinct enough, but they work for my use cases.
I repurposed (a majority of) the existing unit tests for this, but if it should live in separate test cases let me know

Adds an option to hide the `self: type` argument as the first argument in the string representation of a named function type var if the ftv hasSelf.
Also added in a test for the original output (i.e., if the option was disabled)
I didn't apply this option in the normal `Luau::toString()` function, just the `Luau::toStringNamedFunction()` one (for my usecase, that is enough + I felt like a named function would include the method colon `:` to signify self). If this is unintuitive, I can also add it to the general `Luau::toString()` function.
