Concept Documentation: How the Provider Works

[michaeltlombardi]

There should be a document which explains that each generated provider inherits from the DSC base provider in puppetlabs/ruby-pwsh and covers:

• that it leverages the ruby-pwsh code manager
• that it performs some minimal work to convert back and forth between PowerShell and Ruby values
• that it is a relatively thin wrapper around calls to Invoke-DscResource and thus shares that function's limitations
• that it can be updated separately and out of band from the auto-generated modules as it lives in puppetlabs/ruby-pwsh
• how debug mode works and what to expect from it
• how it redacts sensitive information
