fix(resolution): gate the Lua/Luau annotation pattern against method-call self-match (#1124) (#1131)

Lua method-call syntax (lg:Log()) is byte-identical to the Luau type-annotation shape (lg: Logger), and the receiver-type scan starts on the call's own line — so any PascalCase method call self-matched as "type = Log" before the scan reached the real declaration, silently dropping the calls edge whenever two or more classes shared a method name. The annotation pattern now rejects a capture followed by any of Lua's three call forms; its leading [\w.] lookahead alternative prevents backtracking from shrinking the capture to dodge the gate. Gated rather than dropped: the pattern is the only type source for Luau typed params and annotated locals whose initializer isn't T.new(). Co-authored-by: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

+- Lua and Luau method calls with capitalized names (`obj:Method()` — the standard Roblox convention) now link to the right method. Because Lua's method-call syntax looks identical to a Luau type annotation, a capitalized call like `lg:Log()` was misread as declaring the variable's type, so whenever two or more classes shared a method name (`Init`, `Update`, `Destroy`, …) the call was silently dropped from callers, impact/blast-radius, and flow traces. Lowercase method names were unaffected. Thanks @inth3shadows for the precise root-cause analysis and repro. (#1124)
