Sync to upstream/release/555 (#768)
* Type mismatch errors now mention if unification failed in covariant or
invariant context, to explain why sometimes derived class can't be
converted to base class or why `T` can't be converted into `T?` and so
on
* Class type indexing is no longer an error in non-strict mode (still an
error in strict mode)
* Fixed cyclic type packs not being displayed in the type
* Added an error when unrelated types are compared with `==`/`~=`
* Fixed false positive errors involving sub-type tests an `never` type
* Fixed miscompilation of multiple assignment statements (Fixes
https://github.com/Roblox/luau/issues/754)
* Type inference stability improvements

* A cell is a "single-object" value.
*
* Leaky implementation note: sometimes "multiple-object" values, but none of which were interesting enough to warrant creating a phi node instead.
* That can happen because there's no point in creating a phi node that points to either resultant in `if math.random() > 0.5 then 5 else "hello"`.
* This might become of utmost importance if we wanted to do some backward reasoning, e.g. if `5` is taken, then `cond` must be `truthy`.

* A phi node is a union of cells.
*
* We need this because we're statically evaluating a program, and sometimes a place may be assigned with
* different cells, and when that happens, we need a special data type that merges in all the cells
* that will flow into that specific place. For example, consider this simple program:
*
* ```
* x-1
* if cond() then
* x-2 = 5
* else
* x-3 = "hello"
* end
* x-4 : {x-2, x-3}
* ```
*
* At x-4, we know for a fact statically that either `5` or `"hello"` can flow into the variable `x` after the branch, but
* we cannot make any definitive decisions about which one, so we just take in both.

*
* It must also be noted that defs are a cyclic graph, so it is not safe to recursively traverse into it expecting it to terminate.
