seems to be broken from 0.33 onwards

Monaco Editor Playground Code

const value = `
const f = (a, b) => a + b;

const result = f(2, 5);
`;

const editor = monaco.editor.create(document.getElementById("container"), {
	value,
	language: "javascript",
});

monaco.languages.registerInlayHintsProvider("javascript", {
	provideInlayHints(model, range, token) {
		return {
			hints: [
				{
					kind: monaco.languages.InlayHintKind.Type,
					position: { column: 13, lineNumber: 4 },
					label: `: Number`,
				},
				{
					kind: monaco.languages.InlayHintKind.Type,
					position: { column: 13, lineNumber: 2 },
					label: `: Number`,
				},
				{
					kind: monaco.languages.InlayHintKind.Type,
					position: { column: 16, lineNumber: 2 },
					label: `: Number`,
					whitespaceBefore: true, // see difference between a and b parameter
				},
				{
					kind: monaco.languages.InlayHintKind.Parameter,
					position: { column: 18, lineNumber: 4 },
					label: `a:`,
				},
				{
					kind: monaco.languages.InlayHintKind.Parameter,
					position: { column: 21, lineNumber: 4 },
					label: `b:`,
					whitespaceAfter: true, // similar to whitespaceBefore
				},
			],
			dispose: () => {},
		};
	},
});

setTimeout(() => {
editor.setValue(value + " test235");
}, 2000);

Reproduction Steps

1. load the modified sample
2. in "preview", click into line 2, right behind parameter "(a:"
3. you should see that the hints are now duplicated

addition:
if you increaste the amount of "editor.setValue" call the amount of hint duplication stacks accordingly

Actual (Problematic) Behavior

duplicte hints are shown, after the editor value has been set to a new value

Expected Behavior

hints are rendered only once, even if editor value is updated

Additional Context

No response

Start with the linked Monaco Editor Playground sample and reproduce the issue by calling editor.setValue repeatedly. Inspect the inlay hints provider lifecycle and how hints are refreshed after the editor value changes. Done means the sample renders each hint only once after every value update.
