refactor(types): replace more escape hatches with real types - #23054
Replaces more EXPECTED_ANY, EXPECTED_OBJECT, EXPECTED_FUNCTION and unknown uses with real types. Apart from the asciiOnly fix below, runtime behavior is unchanged.

Fix carried from main
main currently fails type-checking. #23051 added a check of options.ascii_only in the printer's makeString, and #23052 renamed the printer's format options to camelCase, so the option it reads is never set. As a result, ASCII-only output escaped the tabs of a long string that it would otherwise write raw. This PR reads options.asciiOnly instead, and adds a regression test that fails on main and passes here.
Changes
JavaScript syntax parser
Removes 20 casts that went through unknown when the target type already accepts the value. The 12 casts at the node/tree-handle boundary stay.
parseIdent builds an IdentifierNode directly.
TreeType and _checkUnreservedAt's name are typed.
Syntax printer
The collected minify options are MinifyOptions instead of Record<string, any>, which also removes two casts.
The print options use a single cast, and the kept-names check has a precise option-group type.
provide and cachedProvide type the compute function from the actual key tuple instead of ...key: any[].
The key type is inferred from the keys, not from the compute function. This uses [R][R extends R ? 0 : never], the pre-5.4 form of NoInfer, so the public typings still work on older TypeScript.
The new type parameters have defaults, so calls that pass only the type arguments these methods had before still compile.
ModuleGraph's cache uses the same MemCache type instead of WeakTupleMap<any[], any>.
Type generator
tooling/generate-types.js printed a type parameter named inside another's constraint or default as a declaration, with its own extends clause. It now prints it as a reference. types.d.ts is otherwise unchanged.
Stats
normalizeFilter is generic over each option's filter function type instead of (value, ...args: any[]) => boolean.
deprecation: proto uses Reflect.setPrototypeOf's own parameter type.
TwoKeyWeakMap key constraints.
Compiler.validate drops its unused default.
ObjectSerializer constraint.
The resolve-options identity map no longer lists Function beside object.
The CSS parser's switched-off option names are typed as real option keys.
Kept on purpose
These stay as they are, because tightening them would break existing user or plugin code:
RenderManifestEntry.filenameTemplate: plugins pass it to getPathWithInfo with the entry's own pathOptions, and TypeScript can't link the two through a union.
Minifier sourceMap parameters: callers pass maps without a file field.
DLL manifest buildMeta: a manifest imported as JSON has exportsType: string.
DefinePluginFunction values: a value typed Function would no longer be accepted.
Rule effect value: plugins write arbitrary rule values into it.
Open option bags and extension bags in declarations/: these stay open for user and plugin data.
Testing
yarn lint passes, including type generation and the types tests.
All JavaScript and CSS syntax unit tests pass (4,258, including the new asciiOnly test).
StatsTestCases and the WeakTupleMap, comparators and deprecation unit tests pass.
One test fails: ProfilingPlugin in real Chrome. It fails the same way on the base branch without these changes.
Updated type definitions across validation, caching, parsing, serialization, and configuration APIs to more accurately describe accepted values and callback arguments, improving feedback in editors and during type checking.
Bug Fixes
Corrected handling of the asciiOnly output option so tabs remain unescaped in long strings while non-ASCII characters are escaped.

Walkthrough
This pull request refines cache callback tuple inference and updates type annotations across parsers, printers, plugins, statistics, and utilities. The summaries report unchanged runtime behavior for most edits.
Changes: Type annotation updates
Layer / File(s)
Summary
Cache tuple contracts and integration lib/Compiler.js, lib/util/WeakTupleMap.js, lib/graph/ModuleGraph.js, .changeset/091-memo-cache-key-types.md
Cache callbacks use inferred tuple types. ModuleGraph passes separated cache keys to cache providers and the uncached callback. A changeset records the cache typing update.
Parser and printer type cleanup lib/css/syntax-parser.js, lib/html/syntax-parser.js, lib/javascript/syntax-parser.js, lib/javascript/syntax-printer.js
Parser and printer annotations remove intermediary casts and specify narrower types. The summaries report no changes to runtime logic.
Plugin hook and filter types lib/debug/ProfilingPlugin.js, lib/stats/DefaultStatsPresetPlugin.js
Hook detection accepts Parser and Generator instances. Filter types and mapping callbacks change while normalization behavior remains unchanged.
Other type annotations and generation lib/Compiler.js, lib/resolve/getResolveOptionsKey.js, lib/serialization/ObjectMiddleware.js, lib/util/comparators.js, lib/util/deprecation.js, tooling/generate-types.js
Validation, serialization, resolver, comparator, deprecation, and type-generation annotations are updated.

Use object instead of the remaining escape-hatch alias.
EXPECTED_OBJECT is defined as object, and TypeScript treats function types as objects. The replacer already guards both object and function values before this map access. Replace the annotation with WeakMap<object, number> to complete the type cleanup without changing runtime behavior. (raw.githubusercontent.com)
Based on learnings: use a real type when EXPECTED_OBJECT does not add information.

Escape hatches count the raw types they stand for too: any, object and Function. Inferred any counts the identifiers whose type TypeScript infers as any though no JSDoc names it, and the new or generic calls whose type arguments it fills with any, such as const map = new Map().

EasyCLA fails on ce93652 (chore: shorten the memo cache changeset). That commit is authored as "Claude [email protected]", an identity with no signed CLA. Every other commit is authored by alexander-akait and passes.
The fix is to re-author that commit and force-push the branch. That rewrites published history, so it is waiting on the PR author. Until then the check stays red; a re-run won't change anything, because the commit itself is the problem.

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.

No runtime gained or lost a runtime module.
Built test/configCases with the defaults a user gets, and the apps in test/sizeCoreReports (apps/): 2344 test(s), 9891 asset(s), 104 emitted nothing.
A node the tree writes is already the `NodeOf` type a parse method returns,
the generated `NodeType` already fits `TreeTypeCodes`, an `IdentifierNode`
is an `Identifier`, and the HTML tokenizer's token is a `Token`. Casting
through `unknown` hid nothing there; the casts left still cross between a
tree handle and a node.
System calls cannot be simulated consistently and are left out of the measure. The reported value understates the real cost. Switch to the Walltime instrument to measure them.
benchmarks / benchmark (7/8) failed on 34a509b before any benchmark ran. While setting up, CodSpeed's runner couldn't download codspeed-memtrack 1.6.1 from GitHub releases (curl: (35) Recv failure: Connection reset by peer). That's a network failure in CI setup, unrelated to this PR, and the other benchmark shards are unaffected. There's nothing to fix in the code. I'll re-run the job once the rest of the workflow run finishes, since GitHub won't re-run failed jobs while the run is still in progress.
