No, please don't use TS-specific chapter names.  In the text, you can
tell that the functions you describe require the tree-sitter library,
but the chapter and section names should ideally be neutral, so we
could later add stuff provided by other libraries, like LSP.

The latter.  The other places, if they are in another node, should
have a cross-reference to that single description.
