## What's Changed
- Improve POSIX compliance in `CLI/FileUtils.cpp` by @SamuraiCrow #1064
- `AstStat*::hasEnd` is deprecated; use `AstStatBlock::hasEnd` instead
- Added a lint for common misuses of the `#` operator
- Luau now issues deprecated diagnostics for some uses of `getfenv` and
`setfenv`
- Fixed a case where we included a trailing space in some error
stringifications
### Compiler
- Do not do further analysis in O2 on self functions
- Improve detection of invalid repeat..until expressions vs continue
### New Type Solver
- We now cache subtype test results to improve performance
- Improved operator inference mechanics (aka type families)
- Further work towards type states
- Work towards [new non-strict
mode](https://github.com/Roblox/luau/blob/master/rfcs/new-nonstrict.md)
continues
### Native Codegen
- Instruction last use locations should follow the order in which blocks
are lowered
- Add a bonus assertion to IrLoweringA64::tempAddr

* Fixed incorrect lexeme generated for string parts in the middle of an
interpolated string (Fixes https://github.com/Roblox/luau/issues/744)
* DeprecatedApi lint can report some issues without type inference
information
* Fixed performance of autocomplete requests when suggestions have large
intersection types (Solves
https://github.com/Roblox/luau/discussions/847)
* Marked `table.getn`/`foreach`/`foreachi` as deprecated ([RFC:
Deprecate
table.getn/foreach/foreachi](https://github.com/Roblox/luau/blob/master/rfcs/deprecate-table-getn-foreach.md))
* With -O2 optimization level, we now optimize builtin calls based on
known argument/return count.
Note that this change can be observable if `getfenv/setfenv` is used to
substitute a builtin, especially if arity is different.
Fastcall heavy tests show a 1-2% improvement.
* Luau can now be built with clang-cl (Fixes
https://github.com/Roblox/luau/issues/736)
We also made many improvements to our experimental components.
For our new type solver:
* Overhauled data flow analysis system, fixed issues with 'repeat'
loops, global variables and type annotations
* Type refinements now work on generic table indexing with a string
literal
* Type refinements will properly track potentially 'nil' values (like
t[x] for a missing key) and their further refinements
* Internal top table type is now isomorphic to `{}` which fixes issues
when `typeof(v) == 'table'` type refinement is handled
* References to non-existent types in type annotations no longer resolve
to 'error' type like in old solver
* Improved handling of class unions in property access expressions
* Fixed default type packs
* Unsealed tables can now have metatables
* Restored expected types for function arguments
And for native code generation:
* Added min and max IR instructions mapping to vminsd/vmaxsd on x64
* We now speculatively extract direct execution fast-paths based on
expected types of expressions which provides better optimization
opportunities inside a single basic block
* Translated existing math fastcalls to IR form to improve tag guard
removal and constant propagation
* The AST JSON encoder will now stringify infinity and NaN according to the JSON5 spec using the tokens `Infinity`, `-Infinity`, and `NaN`.
* Improve autocompletion of table keys if the type of that key is a union of string singletons.
String interpolation autocomplete was not working and was just using
default autocomplete. This fixes it so that inside a string it is
treated as normal, and inside an expression it suggests expression level
autocomplete.
Also fixes the range, which was previously just the first lexeme.
Implements the string interpolation RFC (#165).
Adds the string interpolation as per the RFC.
```lua
local name = "world"
print(`Hello {name}!`) -- Hello world!
```
