Consider adding a note to the provider README regarding riverpod

Describe the solution you'd like Hi there! You noted that this package would need to be tested and approved by the larger Dart community before it could be considered for merging as a breaking version of provider. Given that two versions of riverpod (hooks and flutter) have each racked up a 90+ rating in less than a month, I think it's fair to say that there is a demand for this package and that the problems it solves are real.

On the other hand, it's clearly far too early for a merge to provider. Seeing this, I think that a smart decision would be to add a small note to the top of the provider README, in the form of:

"Check out my experimental rewrite of provider, riverpod! It attempts to solve the problems that are architecturally embedded in this package, and provides a cleaner interface to achieve the same goals." (where the word riverpod contains a hyperlink to https://riverpod.dev)

I think that this might get you some more testers and users to help riverpod achieve maturity, while still conveying that riverpod isn't currently stable.

Good idea. I'll do that when I have finished my article introducing Riverpod, since I have yet to officially announce it.
