Describe the bug
If you have a table with a column that has at least 3 different inner types, the parser will incorrectly infer the column type as the type of the last value, rather than any. This can be most easily demonstrated by adding a type hint which is obviously incorrect, and seeing how the parser reports the inferred type:
This issue blocks #16079 from being merged
How to reproduce
let expected: nothing = [[item];
[123],
[false],
["hi"]
]
Expected behavior
The type should be inferred as table<item: any>
