#2777
if vm.runOperator fails try again with flipped arguments
this emulates how lua checks the binary metaevents in which
if there is no corresponding binary metaevent for the left
operand it checks the right operand instead. This also works
when both operands are tables.

example case:

---@class Vector3
---@operator add(number): Vector3
Vector3 = {}

---@type number
local x
local a = x + Vector3
-- type of a is now Vector3

This change affects:

  • __add
  • __sub
  • __mul
  • __div
  • __idiv
  • __mod
  • __pow
  • __concat
  • __band
  • __bor
  • __bxor
  • __shl
  • __shr
