Break in loop makes variable go out of scope early?

How are you using the lua-language-server?

Visual Studio Code Extension (sumneko.lua)

Which OS are you using?

Linux

What is the issue affecting?

Type Checking

Expected Behaviour

I was trying to fetch a table that could be within a number of tables. Leaving early if it was found

I wanted that locally scoped variable to be the same type after the loop as before it

Actual Behaviour

Only for my variable scoped outside the loop to be unknown after it.
In an attempt to band-aid what I originally luals choking a little, I tried casting it. Only to find it was in fact unaware it even existed.

Reproduction steps

As minimal I can get the code to be and reproduce it:

---@type {[any]:A}
local T

function F()
    ---@class A
    local a

    for _, i in pairs{} do
        a = T[1]
        if a then break end
    end

    -- See it complain the `a` variable
    ---@cast a A
end

Beginne mit der minimalen Lua-Reproduktion im Issue und untersuche das Verhalten der Typprüfung rund um das lokale a, die for-Schleife und break. Als erledigt gilt die Aufgabe, wenn a nach der Schleife seinen Typ A behält und die Zeile ---@cast a A nicht mehr als unbekannt gemeldet wird; füge einen Regressionstest hinzu, der diese Reproduktion verwendet.
