refactor(types): count only truly inferred any and type the rest - #23035
1. The Types Coverage tool counted declared any as inferred. The row says "inferred any: no JSDoc names it". Most of the 128 left on main were reads of a value a JSDoc does name EXPECTED_ANY, so the escape-hatch rows had already counted the declaration. The tool now leaves such reads out:
a symbol whose declarations all state a type;
an unannotated callback parameter whose contextual signature, declared in webpack's own source, states it. Signatures from lib.d.ts or a dependency still count;
a destructured binding whose property, declared in webpack's source, states it.
It also reads an object-literal property ({ value: x } or { exports }) by the value written for it, not by the property name. Measured on main:
constvalue=/** @type {Record<string, EXPECTED_ANY>} */(options)[name];// still counted: inferred from an index read"+": (left,right)=>left+right;// no longer counted: the table's type declares (left: EXPECTED_ANY, right: EXPECTED_ANY)
On main
Inferred any
Old count
128
New count
16
2. The 16 real ones, typed. This brings them down to 3:
Compilation's unsafe-cache restore: the cached module is now ModuleWithRestoreFromUnsafeCache | undefined. A miss returns before the module is used, which the code already relied on (WeakMap.get(undefined)). Restoring casts to a module that has restoreFromUnsafeCache, because only such modules get unsafe-cache data (Compilation.js:2647).
cli.js: the walked value is typed as an object once the checks above it pass.
StatsFactory: the merged result is declared StatsPluginValue.
DefaultStatsPrinterPlugin: the printer hook's object is read as unknown.
deprecation.js: the copied Array.prototype method is cast before .apply.
ConcatenatedModule: the exhaustive default: casts its never value instead of using @ts-expect-error.
syntax-printer.js: the option read is unknown, not EXPECTED_ANY.

The 3 left:
ProgressPlugin's typeof __webpack_require__ reads a bundler-injected global under @ts-expect-error.
WebpackError's two require("util").inspect.custom reads. Typing them makes the type generator print [Symbol.custom] in types.d.ts.
Only Compilation.js changes executable code: a cachedModule && guard before WeakMap.get, and a local for the restored module. The other changed lib/ files parse to the same AST (syntax tree) as main.
What kind of change does this PR introduce?
refactor
Did you add tests for your changes?
No new tests; behaviour is unchanged. Existing tests on the changed paths pass: the unsafe-cache, lazy-barrel, snapshot and managed-path watch cases (304), StatsTestCases (151), the deprecations config cases (15) and the unsafe-cache ConfigCacheTestCases (5). yarn lint passes.
Does this PR introduce a breaking change?
No. types.d.ts is unchanged.
If relevant, what needs to be documented once your changes are merged or what have you already documented?

The pull request refines inferred-any reporting and well-known symbol handling in type-generation tooling. It also adds an ambient declaration and updates type annotations and assertions across runtime modules. The described runtime calls and control flow remain unchanged.
Changes: Type coverage and type annotations
Layer / File(s)
Summary
Classify inferred any values tooling/type-coverage.js
The report detects explicit, contextual, and inherited types. It records inferred-any entries only when the identifier is not declared as any.
Filter generated symbol properties tooling/generate-types.js, declarations.d.ts
Type generation emits internal symbol properties only for recognized well-known symbols. The ambient declarations add a typed __webpack_require__ declaration.
Runtime modules add or refine type annotations and assertions. The unsafe-cache restore call, callback behavior, and other described runtime logic remain unchanged.

Read Changed, test untouched first: the test is byte-identical on both sides, so webpack generated the difference. Changed, test edited moved partly because the test did — Test edit is how many bytes the test gained, and a bundle that grew by less is not a regression. New and Deleted are whole files, not deltas — a new asset was created, not grown, so it reads gray (⚪ added) — and adding tests cannot bury a real change. Gzip decides, because that is what users download; raw is the tiebreak, and brotli and zstd are per asset below.

Resolve declared any from contextual union properties.
At lib/define/DefinePlugin.js:976, value: code has initializer type any and contextual property type any. The value property is declared through ResolvedRuntimeValue, but isDeclaredAny sees only the PropertyAssignment, so yarn types:cover:report counts this stated value as inferred any.
Inspect contextual union constituents and require the contextual property type itself to be any. This preserves genuine inferred cases such as type: this.effectType, whose contextual type is string | EffectUseType.
