PR Summary
Fix the assignment statement type inference to correctly infer its type based on the right side statement, rather than the left.
Depends on #21137 and possibly #19830 to get merged to avoid hurting the UX, hence the WIP tag.
PR Context
This will fix the type inference for multiple variable assignments like:
$Test1 = [string]$Test2 = $Test3 = $Test4 = 10
and also variables assigned with parentheses:$Test1 = ($Test2 = ls)
