Significantly reworked the type => provider interface with respect to

    listing existing provider instances.  The class method on both
    class heirarchies has been renamed to 'instances', to start.  Providers
    are now expected to return provider instances, instead of creating
    resources, and the resource's 'instances' method is expected to
    find the matching resource, if any, and set the resource's
    provider appropriately.  This *significantly* reduces the reliance on
    effectively global state (resource references in the resource classes).
    This global state will go away soon.

    Along with this change, the 'prefetch' class method on providers now
    accepts the list of resources for prefetching.  This again reduces
    reliance on global state, and makes the execution path much easier
    to follow.
