# 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

# 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

New Solver
* New algorithm for inferring the types of locals that have no
annotations. This
algorithm is very conservative by default, but is augmented with some
control
flow awareness to handle most common scenarios.
* Fix bugs in type inference of tables
* Improve performance of by switching out standard C++ containers for
`DenseHashMap`
* Infrastructure to support clearer error messages in strict mode
Native Code Generation
* Fix a lowering issue with buffer.writeu8 and 0x80-0xff values: A
constant
argument wasn't truncated to the target type range and that causes an
assertion failure in `build.mov`.
* Store full lightuserdata value in loop iteration protocol lowering
* Add analysis to compute function bytecode distribution
* This includes a class to analyze the bytecode operator distribution
per
function and a CLI tool that produces a JSON report. See the new cmake
target `Luau.Bytecode.CLI`
