                                             @NotNull Set<TypeProvider> allRelatedProviders)
        Retrieves the best matching BundledRenderUnit for the provided inheritanceChain, by scanning all TypeProvider bundles for the class or script capable of providing a rendering for resource type chain.
        Parameters:
        context - the bundle context to use.
        inheritanceChain - the resource type chain; the set is ordered from the most specific resource type to the most generic one
        allRelatedProviders - this is a super set, containing both the inheritanceChain but also all the required providers; a required provider is a provider that's needed by a ResourceType in order to delegate rendering to it, but it's not extended by the same ResourceType
        Returns:
        a BundledRenderUnit if one was found, null otherwise

        Retrieves a path-based BundledRenderUnit from the passed provider.
        Parameters:
        context - the bundle context to use.
        provider - the provider from which to retrieve the unit
        allRelatedProviders - this is a super set, containing both the providers connected through an inheritance relationship but also all the required providers; a required provider is a provider that's needed by a ResourceType in order to delegate rendering to it, but it's not extended by the same ResourceType
        Returns:
        a BundledRenderUnit if one was found, null otherwise
