Sync to upstream/release/683 (#1921)

Another week, another release!

## Analysis
- Hide errors in all solver modes (not just strict mode) if the only
error is that type inference failed to complete.
- Make various analysis components solver-agnostic (`setType`, `visit`,
`Scope` methods).
- Fix an issue where type inference may fail to complete when assigning
a table's member to the table itself.
- Fix a bug when accessing a table member on a local after the local is
assigned to in an if-else block, loop, or other similar language
construct.
  - Fixes #1914.
- Fix type-checking of if-then-else expressions.
  - Fixes #1815.

# What's changed?

Another somewhat quiet week! Don't let the large PR fool you, this is
mostly ...

## New Solver
* The code for type functions has been re-organized: instead of
_everything_ living in `TypeFunction.h` and `TypeFunction.cpp`, we now
have separate files for the type function inference machinery
(`TypeFunction.h`), definitions of built-in type functions
(`BuiltinTypeFunctions.h`), and the implementation of user defined type
functions (`UserDefinedTypeFunction.h`).
* Refinements against `*no-refine*`, a sentinel type indicating that no
refinements should occur, are now _always_ resolved, even if the target
of the refinement would be otherwise pending, such as another type
function.

## Autocomplete
* Fixed autocomplete to prefer table property completion to string
singleton completion. In the below example, the types associated with
each member of `foo` will be displayed in autocomplete popups.
```
local foo = {
    ["Item/Foo"] = 42,
    ["Item/Bar"] = "it's true",
    ["Item/Baz"] = true,
}
foo["|"] -- cursor at `|`
```

## Native Codegen
* Fixed native compilation lowering of the new global lookup
instruction, which caused code generation to fail with an error or to
evaluate incorrect results. Issue affected 678-681 releases when all
flags were enabled.

# What's Changed?
Short week, so a slightly shorter release! This one has been focused on
improving polish in fragment autocomplete and the new solver.

## New Type Solver
* Fix a bug where we didn't infer self types correctly under
bidirectional type inference.
* Improve the memory consumption of the new solver by reducing the
number of expensive allocations performed by `Substitution`.
* The New non strict Mode shouldn't issue errors when we call checked
functions with `never` values.
* Extend the number of cases in which the new non strict mode can report
unknown symbols.
* Fix a bug where `and` and `or` expressions didn't correctly forward
information computed by their operands. This should allow more programs
using these expressions to complete typechecking correctly.
* Small performance improvements for `Generalization`

## Fragment Autocomplete
* Fragment autocomplete provides richer autofill information when typing
`self.|`
* Fragment autocomplete now uses refinement information computed in the
new solver to provide more accurate incremental completion.

## Code Generation
* Fix a bug where Codegen could sometimes try to execute a
non-executable page

# What's Changed?

This week includes many changes to bring the behaviours of the Old and
New Luau Type Solver more in line.
* The old solver now stringifies tables identically to the new solver.
Sealed tables are stringified as `{ ... }` and unsealed tables are
represented by `{| ... |}`, regardless of your choice of solver.


## New Type Solver

* Miscellaneous fixes to make the Luau Frontend able to dynamically
toggle which solve is used.
* Small fixes to reduce instances of nondeterminism of the New Type
Solver.
* Issue an error when a function that has multiple non-viable overloads
is used.
* Subtyping now returns more information about the generics for type
inference to consume.
* Stop stuck type-functions from blocking type inference. This should
lead to fewer instances of 'type inference failed to complete'.

## Fragment Autocomplete
* Fixed a bug where incremental autocomplete wouldn't be able to provide
results directly on a required module script.
`require(script.Module).{request completions here}` will now recommend
the properties returned by the required object.

# What's Changed?

We've been hard at work fixing bugs and introducing new features!

## VM 
* Include constant-folding information in Luau cost model for inlining
and loop unrolling
   * ~1% improvement in compile times

## New Type Solver
* `Luau::shallowClone`'s last argument, whether to clone persistent
(builtin) types, is now non-optional.
* Refinements on properties of tables are now computed with a `read`
table property. This resolves some issues around refining table
properies and then trying to set them. Fixes #1344. Fixes #1651.
```
if foo.bar then
    -- Prior to this release, this would be `typeof(foo) & { bar: ~(false?) }
    -- Now, this is `typeof(foo) & { read bar: ~(false?) }
end
```
* The type function `keyof` should respect the empty string as a
property, as in:
```
-- equivalent to type Foo =""
type Foo = keyof<{ [""]: number }>
```
* Descend into literals to report subtyping errors for function calls:
this both improves bidirectional inference and makes errors more
specific. Before, the error reporting for a table with incorrect members
passed to a function would cite the entire table, but now it only cites
the members that are incorrectly typed.
* Fixes a case where intersecting two tables without any common
properties would create `never`, instead of a table with both of their
properties.

# What's Changed?

We've been hard at work fixing bugs in the new type solver and getting
it ready to go!

## Native Codegen

* Specialized Luau Codegen instruction for fetching an import.
As a reminder, an import is an expression like `global.thing` and covers
stuff like libraries without fastcalls `coroutine.resume`) and atomic
extern libraries.

## New Type Solver

* Fix an issue that prevented eager generalization from working properly
with OO styled code.
* Avoid copying uninitialized memory in Luau attribute parsing
* Improve type inference of unsealed tables.
    * This fixes #1838
    * and #1859
* Infer potential singleton string keys in autocomplete when the
expected index type is a union type.
* Avoid creating cyclic types when reducing types of the form `t1 where
t1 = refine<T, t1, Y>`
* The type cloner now does the same thing for the new and old solvers.
* Properly infer polarity (aka variance) for divergent table properties.
(ie tables whose read type and write type are not the same)
* Crash fixes.

# What's Changed?

This week comes with many improvements to the new type solver and an important fix to the garbage collection to make it more robust in memory constrained scenarios.

# Runtime
- Garbage collection will no longer run out of memory itself, which could have happened when resizing arrays to a smaller size

# New Type Solver
- Type refinements on external types should now work and should no longer normalize the type into `never`
- Improved error reporting when `string.format` is used with a dynamic format string
- Updated type signature of `getmetatable` library function to use the corresponding type function and produce better type inference
- Restored a type mismatch error when converting function types with different number of generic parameters, like `() -> ()` into `<T>() -> ()`
- Types resulting from compound assignments have been simplified, reducing cyclic type introduction and inference failures
- Fixed function generic types leaking into tables during bidirectional type inference (Fixes #1808 and #1821 )
- Stability and performance improvements (Fixes #1860 )

Sync to upstream/release/676 (#1856)

We're back on track after the long weekend!

## General 
- `clang-format`ed new code. Keep your code tidy!
- Disable some Luau tests that are broken currently.
- Enable fragment autocomplete to do tagged union completion for modules
typechecked in the old solver.

## New Type Solver
- Fix false positives on generic type packs in non-strict mode.
- Update type signature of `setmetatable` to be `<T, MT>(T, MT) ->
setmetatable<T, MT>`.
- Make local type aliases available in type functions. For example:
```
type Foo = number
type Array<T> = {T}

type function Bar(t)
  return types.unionof(Foo, Array(t))
end
```

## VM/Runtime
- Make sure `lua_unref` doesn't accept refs which did not exist in the
table.

## General 
- Introduce `Frontend::parseModules` for parsing a group of modules at
once.
- Support chained function types in the CST.

## New Type Solver
- Enable write-only table properties (described in [this
RFC](https://rfcs.luau.org/property-writeonly.html)).
- Disable singleton inference for large tables to improve performance.
- Fix a bug that occurs when we try to expand a type alias to itself.
- Catch cancelation during the type-checking phase in addition to during
constraint solving.
- Fix stringification of the empty type pack: `()`.
- Improve errors for calls being rejected on the primitive `function`
type.
- Rework generalization: We now generalize types as soon as the last
constraint relating to them is finished. We think this will reduce the
number of cases where type inference fails to complete and reduce the
number of instances where `*blocked*` types appear in the inference
result.

## VM/Runtime
- Dynamically disable native execution for functions that incur a
slowdown (relative to bytecode execution).
- Improve names for `thread`/`closure`/`proto` in the Luau heap dump.

# General

* Expose an optional `get_alias` API as an alternative to `get_config`
in Luau.Require and Luau.RequireNavigator.
* Improve the Luau CLI's virtual filesystem implementation to fix bugs
related to `init.luau`. Fixes
#1816


# New Type Solver

* Avoid double reporting errors when erroneous arguments are provided to
type functions.
* Fix some instances of unresovable cyclic type functions in loops by
only considering the first loop cycles. This results in some type
inference inaccuracies when the type of a variable in loop through
multiple iterations. Fixes
#1413.
* Better generalize free types that have meaningful lower and upper
bounds, especially for table indexers.
* Report more specific errors when assigning or returning table literal
types, instead of citing the *entire* table type.
* Inference for functions with generic type packs is greatly improved.
* Fix some internal compiler exceptions when using type-stating
functions like `table.freeze` in `if _ then _ else _` expressions and
short circuiting binary operations.
* More consistently simplify unions of primitive types, especially in
array-like and dictionary-like tables.
* Fix a crash when type checking an erroneous type alias containing
`typeof` with a type assertion expression, as in:
  ```
  type MyTable = {}
  -- This will error at type checking time as it's a duplicate
  type MyTable = typeof(setmetatable(SomeTable :: {}, SomeMetaTable));
  ```
* Fix a crash when inferring the type of an index expression where the
indexee is invalid (e.g. `nil`).

# Runtime
* Avoid throwing an exception from `luau_load` if we run out of memory.
* Type functions are no longer compiled and included in bytecode. Fixes
#1817.
* Fix some instances of Luau C API functions reading invalid debug
information (generally when the first or last instruction of a block was
being inspected). Fixes #1369.
* Avoid potential signed integer overflow when doing bounds checks on
tables.
* Support 16 byte aligned userdata objects when system allocation
alignment is also 16 bytes.
* Fix memory leaks in `Luau.Require` when using VM build with no
exceptions. Fixes #1827.
