Pull request overview
Aligns TypeScript’s lib typing for RegExp#[Symbol.matchAll] with the already-correct String#matchAll behavior by returning an iterator of RegExpExecArray (fixing #60515).
Changes:
- Updated
RegExp#[Symbol.matchAll]to returnRegExpStringIterator<RegExpExecArray>instead ofRegExpMatchArray. - Updated compiler test baselines to reflect the new iterator element type (including
index/inputbecoming non-optional).
