## What's Changed?
* Optimized the vector dot product by up to 24%
* Allow for x/y/z/X/Y/Z vector field access by registering a `vector`
metatable
with an `__index` method (Fixes#1521)
* Fixed a bug preventing consistent recovery from parse errors in table
types.
* Optimized `k*n` and `k+n` when types are known
* Allow fragment autocomplete to handle cases like the automatic
insertion of
parens, keywords, strings, etc., while maintaining a correct relative
positioning
### New Solver
* Allow for `nil` assignment to tables and classes with indexers

## What's new
* Added `math.map` function to the standard library, based on
https://rfcs.luau-lang.org/function-math-map.html
* `FileResolver` can provide an implementation of
`getRequireSuggestions` to provide auto-complete suggestions for
require-by-string
## New Solver
* In user-defined type functions, `readproperty` and `writeproperty`
will return `nil` instead of erroring if property is not found
* Fixed incorrect scope of variadic arguments in the data-flow graph
* Fixed multiple assertion failures

# 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

# 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

with inconsistent error reporting.
* Fix a bug in the normalization logic for intersections of strings
New Type Solver
* New overload selection logic
* Subtype tests now correctly treat a generic as its upper bound within
that generic's scope
* Semantic subtyping for negation types
* Semantic subtyping between strings and compatible table types like
`{lower: (string) -> string}`
* Further work toward finalizing our new subtype test
* Correctly generalize module-scope symbols
Native Codegen
* Lowering statistics for assembly
* Make executable allocation size/limit configurable without a rebuild.
Use `FInt::LuauCodeGenBlockSize` and `FInt::LuauCodeGenMaxTotalSize`.

* Better indentation in multi-line type mismatch error messages
* Error message clone can no longer cause a stack overflow (when
typechecking with retainFullTypeGraphs set to false); fixes
https://github.com/Roblox/luau/issues/975
* `string.format` with %s is now ~2x faster on strings smaller than 100
characters
Native code generation:
* All VM side exits will block return to the native execution of the
current function to preserve correctness
* Fixed executable page allocation on Apple platforms when using
hardened runtime
* Added statistics for code generation (no. of functions compiler,
memory used for different areas)
* Fixed issue with function entry type checks performed more that once
in some functions
* Progress toward a diffing algorithm for types. We hope that this will
be useful for writing clearer error messages.
* Add a missing recursion limiter in `Unifier::tryUnifyTables`. This was
causing a crash in certain situations.
* Luau heap graph enumeration improvements:
* Weak references are not reported
* Added tag as a fallback name of non-string table links
* Included top Luau function information in thread name to understand
where thread might be suspended
* Constant folding for `math.pi` and `math.huge` at -O2
* Optimize `string.format` and `%*`
* This change makes string interpolation 1.5x-2x faster depending on the
number and type of formatted components, assuming a few are using
primitive types, and reduces associated GC pressure.
New type checker:
* Initial work toward tracking the upper and lower bounds of types
accurately.
Native code generation (JIT):
* Add IrCmd::CHECK_TRUTHY for improved assert fast-calls
* Do not compute type map for modules without types
* Capture metatable+readonly state for NEW_TABLE IR instructions
* Replace JUMP_CMP_ANY with CMP_ANY and existing JUMP_EQ_INT
* Add support for exits to VM with reentry lock in VmExit

Type checker/autocomplete:
* `Luau::autocomplete` no longer performs typechecking internally, make
sure to run `Frontend::check` before performing autocomplete requests
* Autocomplete string suggestions without "" are now only suggested
inside the ""
* Autocomplete suggestions now include `function (anonymous autofilled)`
key with a full suggestion for the function expression (with arguments
included) stored in `AutocompleteEntry::insertText`
* `AutocompleteEntry::indexedWithSelf` is provided for function call
suggestions made with `:`
* Cyclic modules now see each other type exports as `any` to prevent
memory use-after-free (similar to module return type)
Runtime:
* Updated inline/loop unroll cost model to better handle assignments
(Fixes https://github.com/Roblox/luau/issues/978)
* `math.noise` speed was improved by ~30%
* `table.concat` speed was improved by ~5-7%
* `tonumber` and `tostring` now have fastcall paths that execute ~1.5x
and ~2.5x faster respectively (fixes#777)
* Fixed crash in `luaL_typename` when index refers to a non-existing
value
* Fixed potential out of memory scenario when using `string.sub` or
`string.char` in a loop
* Fixed behavior of some fastcall builtins when called without arguments
under -O2 to match original functions
* Support for native code execution in VM is now enabled by default
(note: native code still has to be generated explicitly)
* `Codegen::compile` now accepts `CodeGen_OnlyNativeModules` flag. When
set, only modules that have a `--!native` hot-comment at the top will be
compiled to native code
In our new typechecker:
* Generic type packs are no longer considered to be variadic during
unification
* Timeout and cancellation now works in new solver
* Fixed false positive errors around 'table' and 'function' type
refinements
* Table literals now use covariant unification rules. This is sound
since literal has no type specified and has no aliases
* Fixed issues with blocked types escaping the constraint solver
* Fixed more places where error messages that should've been suppressed
were still reported
* Fixed errors when iterating over a top table type
In our native code generation (jit):
* 'DebugLuauAbortingChecks' flag is now supported on A64
* LOP_NEWCLOSURE has been translated to IR
* Added support for async typechecking cancellation using a token passed
through frontend options
* Added luaC_enumheap for building debug tools that need a graph of Luau
heap
In our new typechecker:
* Errors or now suppressed when checking property lookup of
error-suppressing unions
In our native code generation (jit):
* Fixed unhandled value type in NOT_ANY lowering
* Fast-call tag checks will exit to VM on failure, instead of relying on
a native fallback
* Added vector type to the type information
* Eliminated redundant direct jumps across dead blocks
* Debugger APIs are now disabled for call frames executing natively
* Implemented support for unwind registration on macOS 14
* Fixed indexing table intersections using `x["prop"]` syntax:
https://github.com/Roblox/luau/pull/971
* Add console output codepage for Windows:
https://github.com/Roblox/luau/pull/967
* Added `Frontend::parse` for a fast source graph preparation
* luau_load should check GC
* Work toward a type-diff system for nicer error messages
New Solver
* Correctly suppress errors in more cases
* Further improvements to typechecking of function calls and return
statements
* Crash fixes
* Propagate refinements drawn from the condition of a while loop into
the loop body
JIT
* Fix accidental bailout for math.frexp/modf/sign in A64
* Work toward bringing type annotation info in
* Do not propagate Luau IR constants of wrong type into load
instructions
* CHECK_SAFEENV exits to VM on failure
* Implement error handling in A64 reg allocator
* Inline the string.len builtin
* Do not enter native code of a function if arguments don’t match
