IIUC, tree-sitter starts by parsing the whole buffer anyway, and then
keeps the parse tree up-to-date in response to buffer changes.
Its algorithm is tuned so that the time needed to update the tree is
more or less proportional to the size of the change.
So jit-lock/font-lock doesn't need to pass any part of the buffer to
tree-sitter: tree-sitter already has the buffer's content and we can
assume its already parsed. What emacs-tree-sitter's proposed
tree-sitter-highlight does is provide a function which takes
a START..END, then finds which part of the existing parse tree cover
that region and "reads the tree" to fontify the corresponding text.
