Monaco-editor: DocumentSymbol are not exposed by DocumentSymbolProvider

@akosyakov Not sure, what do you mean?

[akosyakov]

DocumentSymbolProvider.provideDocumentSymbols returns only SymbolInformation, but in VS Code api it supports DocumentSymbol as well.

I don't think there's any real ask here besides that we ship a new version of the editor?

The monaco.d.ts in the pipeline will contain this:

[akosyakov]

@alexandrudima I've noticed that SymbolInformation is still there, but is not used. Is it on purpose or DocumentSymbolProvider should return DocumentSymbol or SymbolInformation to be backward compatible?

[alexdima]

@akosyakov I can't find any SymbolInformation in the monaco.d.ts from master. I'm not sure what the real change is here. @jrieken can you please explain what the change is.

[jrieken]

for the standalone editor SymbolInformation has been replaced with DocumentSymbol. @akosyakov you must be looking at the wrong thing.
