* 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.

### What's new
* Light update this week, mostly fast flag cleanups.
### New Solver
* Rename flag to enable new solver from
`DebugLuauDeferredConstraintResolution` to `LuauSolverV2`
* Added support for magic functions for the new type checker (as opposed
to the type inference component)
* Improved handling of `string.format` with magic function improvements
* Cleaning up some of the reported errors by the new type checker
* Minor refactoring of `TypeChecker2.cpp` that happens to make the diff
very hard to read.

### What's new
* Fixed many of the false positive errors in indexing of table unions
and table intersections
* It is now possible to run custom checks over Luau AST during
typechecking by setting `customModuleCheck` in `FrontendOptions`
* Fixed codegen issue on arm, where number->vector cast could corrupt
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
solver

New Solver
* Fix some type inference issues surrounding updates to upvalues eg
```luau
local x = 0
function f()
x = x + 1
end
```
* User-defined type function progress
* Bugfixes for normalization of negated class types. eg `SomeClass &
(class & ~SomeClass)`
* Fixes to subtyping between tables and the top `table` type.

# What's Changed?
- Code refactoring with a new clang-format
- More bug fixes / test case fixes in the new solver
## New Solver
- More precise telemetry collection of `any` types
- Simplification of two completely disjoint tables combines them into a
single table that inherits all properties / indexers
- Refining a `never & <anything>` does not produce type family types nor
constraints
- Silence "inference failed to complete" error when it is the only error
reported

- Improved inferring a call to `setmetatable()`
## VM
- Restored global metatable lookup for `typeof` on lightuserdata to fix
unintentional API change (Fixes#1335)
