Sync to upstream/release/645 (#1440)
In this update, we continue to improve the overall stability of the new
type solver. We're also shipping some early bits of two new features,
one of the language and one of the analysis API: user-defined type
functions and an incremental typechecking API.

If you use the new solver and want to use all new fixes included in this
release, you have to reference an additional Luau flag:
```c++
LUAU_DYNAMIC_FASTINT(LuauTypeSolverRelease)
```
And set its value to `645`:
```c++
DFInt::LuauTypeSolverRelease.value = 645; // Or a higher value for future updates
```

## New Solver

* Fix a crash where scopes are incorrectly accessed cross-module after
they've been deallocated by appropriately zeroing out associated scope
pointers for free types, generic types, table types, etc.
* Fix a crash where we were incorrectly caching results for bound types
in generalization.
* Eliminated some unnecessary intermediate allocations in the constraint
solver and type function infrastructure.
* Built some initial groundwork for an incremental typecheck API for use
by language servers.
* Built an initial technical preview for [user-defined type
functions](https://rfcs.luau-lang.org/user-defined-type-functions.html),
more work still to come (including calling type functions from other
type functions), but adventurous folks wanting to experiment with it can
try it out by enabling `FFlag::LuauUserDefinedTypeFunctionsSyntax` and
`FFlag::LuauUserDefinedTypeFunction` in their local environment. Special
thanks to @joonyoo181 who built up all the initial infrastructure for
this during his internship!

## Miscellaneous changes

* Fix a compilation error on Ubuntu (fixes #1437)
