Ability to route "back"

[lukejacksonn]

I've rolled my own router for a while but would like to move to using this package. I went to migrate one of my existing apps and realised that I use router.back() quite prolifically in the app with my hand rolled router implementation.

Do you ever plan to support this operation at all?

If so that is great and I could even look at adding this functionality via a PR.. it might be also be worth including a canGoBack field like in expo router which detects whether there is a previous route in the navigation history stack.

I don't think it's on our todo lists but would be happy to see it supported if you did want to give it a shot!

I'm not against a canGoBack though I'm not quite sure it'd fit into the current API well. Guess it can just go on the route location context if need be.

Ok great, I will take a look at the source code and have a go at implementing just the back functionality first!
