# 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

This change adds another file for benchmarking luau-analyze and sets up
benchmarks for both non-strict/strict modes for analysis and all three
optimization levels for compilation performance.
To avoid issues with race conditions on repository update we do all this
in the same job in benchmark.yml.
To be able to benchmark both modes from a single file, luau-analyze
gains --mode argument which allows to override the default typechecking
mode. Not sure if we'll want this to be a hard override on top of the
module-specified mode in the future, but this works for now.
