Reproduction Steps
Create any diff editor with monaco version 0.40.0 or later.
Actual (Problematic) Behavior
With the version [0.40.0] the methods getDiffLineInformationForOriginal & getDiffLineInformationForModified are removed from IDiffEditor as per the change log.
But there are no alternates to those methods yet.
These methods were used to find the line positions between versions and tracked.
Is something planned to replace them or are there other ways to get the information?
