# What's changed?
* Improved the actual message for the type errors for `cannot call
non-function` when attempting to call a union of functions/callable
tables. The error now correctly explains the issue is an inability to
determine the return type of the call in this situation.
* Resolve an issue where tables and metatables were not correctly being
cloned during instantiation (fixes#1176).
* Refactor `luaM_getnextgcopage` to `luaM_getnextpage` (generally
removing `gco` prefix where appropriate).
* Optimize `table.move` between tables for large ranges of elements.
* Reformat a bunch of code automatically using `clang-format`.
### New Type Solver
* Clean up minimally-used or unused constraints in the constraint solver
(`InstantiationConstraint`, `SetOpConstraint`,
`SingletonOrTopTypeConstraint`).
* Add a builtin `singleton` type family to replace
`SingletonOrTopTypeConstraint` when inferring refinements.
* Fixed a crash involving type path reasoning by recording when type
family reduction has taken place in the path.
* Improved constraint ordering by blocking on unreduced types families
that are not yet proven uninhabitable.
* Improved the handling of `SetIndexerConstraints` for both better
inference quality and to resolve crashes.
* Fix a crash when normalizing cyclic unions of intersections.
* Fix a crash when normalizing an intersection with the negation of
`unknown`.
* Fix a number of crashes caused by missing `follow` calls on `TypeId`s.
* Changed type family reduction to correctly use a semantic notion of
uninhabited types, rather than checking for `never` types specifically.
* Refactor the `union` and `intersect` type families to be variadic.
### Native Code Generation
* Improve translation for userdata key get/set and userdata/vector
namecall.
* Provide `[top level]` and `[anonymous]` as function names to
`FunctionStats` as appropriate when no function name is available.
* Disable unwind support on Android platforms since it is unsupported.

# What's Changed
* Add a compiler hint to improve Luau memory allocation inlining
### New Type Solver
* Added a system for recommending explicit type annotations to users in
cases where we've inferred complex generic types with type families.
* Marked string library functions as `@checked` for use in new
non-strict mode.
* Fixed a bug with new non-strict mode where we would incorrectly report
arity mismatches when missing optional arguments.
* Implement an occurs check for unifications that would produce
self-recursive types.
* Fix bug where overload resolution would fail when applied to
non-overloaded functions.
* Fix bug that caused the subtyping to report an error whenever a
generic was instantiated in an invariant context.
* Fix crash caused by `SetPropConstraint` not blocking properly.
### Native Code Generation
* Implement optimization to eliminate dead stores
* Optimize vector ops for X64 when the source is computed (thanks,
@zeux!)
* Use more efficient lowering for UNM_* (thanks, @zeux!)

# What's changed?
### Native Code Generation
* Fixed an UAF relating to reusing a hash key after a weak table has
undergone some GC.
* Fixed a bounds check on arm64 to allow access to the last byte of a
buffer.
### New Type Solver
* Type states now preserves error-suppression, i.e. `local x: any = 5`
and `x.foo` does not error.
* Made error-suppression logic in subtyping more accurate.
* Subtyping now knows how to reduce type families.
* Fixed function call overload resolution so that the return type
resolves to the correct overload.
* Fixed a case where we attempted to reduce irreducible type families a
few too many times, leading to duplicate errors.
* Type checker needs to type check annotations in function signatures to
be able to report errors relating to those annotations.
* Fixed an UAF from a pointer to stack-allocated data in Subtyping's
`explainReasonings`.
### Nonstrict Type Checker
* Fixed a crash when calling a checked function of the form `math.abs`
with an incorrect argument type.
* Fixed a crash when calling a checked function with a number of
arguments that did not exactly match the number of parameters required.
