## What's Changed

### General
- Allow types of tables to diverge after using `table.clone` (fixes
#1617).
- Allow 2-argument vector.create in Luau.
- Fix a crash when suggesting autocomplete after encountering parsing
errors.
- Add lua_tolstringatom C API which returns the string length (whether
or not the atom exists) and which extends the existing lua_tostringatom
function the same way lua_tolstring/lua_tostring do.
- Luau now retains the DFGs of typechecked modules.

### Magic Functions Migration Note
We've made a change to the API used to define magic functions.

Previously, we had a set of function pointers on each `FunctionType`
that would be invoked by the type inference engine at the correct point.

The problem we'd run into is that they were all `std::function`s, we'd
grown quite a few of them, and Luau allocates tens of thousands of types
as it performs type inference. This adds up to a large amount of memory
for data that isn't used by 99% of types.

To slim things down a bit, we've replaced all of those `std::function`s
with a single `shared_ptr` to a new interface called `MagicFunction`.
This slims down the memory footprint of each type by about 50 bytes.

The virtual methods of `MagicFunction` have roughly 1:1 correspondence
with the old interface, so updating things should not be too difficult:

* `FunctionType::magicFunction` is now `MagicFunction::handleOldSolver`
* `FunctionType::dcrMagicFunction` is now `MagicFunction::infer`
* `FunctionType::dcrMagicRefinement` is now `MagicFunction::refine`
* `FunctionType::dcrMagicTypeCheck` is now `MagicFunction::typeCheck`
