Close provider

[nghianguyen119]

Describe the Feature

On web3.js we can close a provider to delete all related info of a provider, this is useful on web3modal when we want to disconnect and reconnect
On web3.js: provider.currentProvider.close()
https://github.com/Web3Modal/web3modal/blob/master/example/src/App.tsx#L470

I searched on the documentation but not sure there is such function on ethers.js, the trouble is when I use web3modal with ethers, I can't log out completely the provider.

In v6, you can use provider.destroy() which removes all listeners and releases any resources, sockets, etc.

(I don’t know what is meant by “log out” in the OP though)
