Hello all! Another week, another Luau release!

# Change to `lua_setuserdatametatable`

This release fixes #1710: `lua_setuserdatametatable` is being changed so
that it _only_ operates on the top of the stack: the `idx` parameter is
being removed. Prior to this, `lua_setuserdatametable` would set the
metatable of the value in the stack at `idx`, but _always_ pop the top
of the stack. The old behavior is available in this release as
`lua_setuserdatametatable_DEPRECATED`.

# General

This release exposes a generalized implementation of require-by-string's
autocomplete logic. `FileResolver` can now be optionally constructed
with a `RequireSuggester`, which provides an interface for converting a
given module to a `RequireNode`. Consumers of this new API implement a
`RequireNode` to define how modules are represented in their embedded
context, and the new API manages the logic specific to
require-by-string, including providing suggestions for require aliases.
This enhancement moves toward integrating require-by-string's semantics
into the language itself, rather than merely providing a specification
for community members to implement themselves.

# New Type Solver
* Fixed a source of potential `Luau::follow detected a Type cycle`
internal compiler exceptions when assigning a global to itself.
* Fixed an issue whereby `*no-refine*` (a type which should not be
visible at the end of type checking) was not being properly elided,
causing inference of class-like tables to become unreadable / induce
crashes in autocomplete.
* Fixed a case of incomplete constraint solving when performing basic
math in a loop

# Fragment Autocomplete
* Fixed several crashes related to not properly filling in scope
information for the fragments
* Fixed a source of memory corruption by isolating the return type of a
fragment when it is type checked.
* Improved performance by opting not to clone persistent types for the
fragment (e.g.: built in types)
