# General Updates
Fix an old solver crash that occurs in the presence of cyclic
`requires()`
## New Solver
- Improvements to Luau user-defined type function library
- Avoid asserting on unexpected metatable types
- Properties in user defined type functions should have a consistent
iteration order - in this case it is insertion ordering
# Runtime
- Track VM allocations for telemetry

### New Type Solver
* Fixed crash in numeric binary operation type families
* Results of an indexing operation are now comparable to `nil` without a
false positive error
* Fixed a crash when a type that failed normalization was accessed
* Iterating on a free value now implies that it is iterable

# 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.
- `IterableConstraint` now consider tables without `__iter` to be
iterables.
### Native Code Generation
- Improve register type info lookup by program counter.
- Generate type information for locals and upvalues

# 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

# 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
