Sync to upstream/release/601 (#1084)

## What's changed

- `bit32.byteswap` added
([RFC](4f543ec23b/docs/function-bit32-byteswap.md))
- Buffer library implementation
([RFC](4f543ec23b/docs/type-byte-buffer.md))
- Fixed a missing `stdint.h` include
- Fixed parser limiter for recursive type annotations being kind of
weird (fixes #645)

### Native Codegen
- Fixed a pair of issues when lowering `bit32.extract`
- Fixed a narrow edge case that could result in an infinite loop without
an interruption
- Fixed a negative array out-of-bounds access issue
- Temporarily reverted linear block predecessor value propagation

### New type solver
- We now type check assignments to annotated variables
- Fixed some test cases under local type inference
- Moved `isPending` checks for type families to improve performance
- Optimized our process for testing if a free type is sufficiently
solved
- Removed "none ptr" from lea instruction disassembly logging

### Build system & tooling
- CMake configuration now validates dependencies to maintain separation
between components
- Improvements to the fuzzer coverage
- Deduplicator for fuzzed callstacks
