I think this captures the basics. I’m open to suggestions.

IMO this is brief enough to keep in the readme, but I can move it into /docs/basic-concepts or so and link that if that’s preferable.

Closes #4084

Providers provide smart editor features, also known as IntelliSense. For example, this includes completion and hover information. It is not the same as, but often maps to [language server protocol](https://microsoft.github.io/language-server-protocol) features.

Providers work on models. Some IntelliSense depends on the file URI. For example, for TypeScript to resolve imports, or for JSON IntelliSense to determine which JSON schema to apply to which model. So it’s important to choose proper model URIs.

I'd use "auto-complete", afaik IntelliSense is a Visual Studio only term

I thought it applied to Monaco editor too, as it was part of VS Code. Good to know this is not the case. :)

I changed it to editors features, as it’s not just auto-complete.
