* Definition files can now ascribe indexers to class types.
(https://github.com/Roblox/luau/pull/949)
* Remove --compile support from the REPL. You can just use luau-compile
instead.
* When an exception is thrown during parallel typechecking (usually an
ICE), we now gracefully stop typechecking and drain active workers
before rethrowing the exception.
New solver
* Include more source location information when we hit an internal
compiler error
* Improve the logic that simplifies intersections of tables
JIT
* Save testable type annotations to bytecode
* Improve block placement for linearized blocks
* Add support for lea reg, [rip+offset] for labels
* Unify X64 and A64 codegen for RETURN
* Outline interrupt handlers for X64
* Remove global rArgN in favor of build.abi
* Change A64 INTERRUPT lowering to match X64

Lots of things going on this week:
* Fix a crash that could occur in the presence of a cyclic union. We
shouldn't be creating cyclic unions, but we shouldn't be crashing when
they arise either.
* Minor cleanup of `luau_precall`
* Internal change to make L->top handling slightly more uniform
* Optimize SETGLOBAL & GETGLOBAL fallback C functions.
* https://github.com/Roblox/luau/pull/929
* The syntax to the `luau-reduce` commandline tool has changed. It now
accepts a script, a command to execute, and an error to search for. It
no longer automatically passes the script to the command which makes it
a lot more flexible. Also be warned that it edits the script it is
passed **in place**. Do not point it at something that is not in source
control!
New solver
* Switch to a greedier but more fallible algorithm for simplifying union
and intersection types that are created as part of refinement
calculation. This has much better and more predictable performance.
* Fix a constraint cycle in recursive function calls.
* Much improved inference of binary addition. Functions like `function
add(x, y) return x + y end` can now be inferred without annotations. We
also accurately typecheck calls to functions like this.
* Many small bugfixes surrounding things like table indexers
* Add support for indexers on class types. This was previously added to
the old solver; we now add it to the new one for feature parity.
JIT
* https://github.com/Roblox/luau/pull/931
* Fuse key.value and key.tt loads for CEHCK_SLOT_MATCH in A64
* Implement remaining aliases of BFM for A64
* Implement new callinfo flag for A64
* Add instruction simplification for int->num->int conversion chains
* Don't even load execdata for X64 calls
* Treat opcode fallbacks the same as manually written fallbacks
