Added an option to enable or disable the Volumetric Sound feature for live places.

Fixed an issue that sometimes text is blurry when parented under CanvasGroup.

Fixed RichText not displaying correct font when changing from invisible to visible.

Fixed Escape not opening the escape menu while testing in Studio.

Fixed vote count in Asset Preview.

Studio Edit mode controls no longer break/override test mode camera keybinds (e.g. I/O) and the emote wheel.

Fixed an issue that prevented plugins from using Parallel Lua features.

The loading screen will no longer default to landscape. Instead, it will initially match the phone orientation until the game is loaded and then switch to whatever orientation the game supports.
The default value of StaterGui/ScreenOrientation will be changed from LandscapeSensor to Sensor.

Luau now supports __len metamethod for tables; ‘#v’ will call __len if defined; __len must return a number.

Additionally, Luau now implements rawlen function that computes the length of the table without using the metamethod dispatch, although note that this function is rarely useful and is going to be slower than #v’.

In strict mode, Luau will now be much smarter about inferring correct return types and argument types in certain cases.
