Description
### Type of issue
Typo
### Description
From https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/dotnet/core/whats-new/dotnet-8/runtime#time-abstraction
> The new [TimeProvider](https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/dotnet/api/system.timeprovider) class and [ITimer](https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/dotnet/api/system.threading.itimer) interface add time abstraction functionality, which allows you to mock time in test scenarios.
But it is not `TimeProvider` which allows mocking. That is [`FakeTimeProvider`](https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/dotnet/api/microsoft.extensions.time.testing.faketimeprovider?view=net-8.0).
I would say, some note on its existance worth it.
