React-router: [v6] `Link` component `to` prop can no longer receive function

[OliverJAsh]

In v5 we could pass a function (which would receive a location param) to the to prop. This no longer seems to be supported in v6, judging by the types:

https://github.com/ReactTraining/react-router/blob/262b45dd8d6cbdc3a984259c5591ffc3de80d600/packages/react-router-dom/index.tsx#L229

There doesn't seem to be any mention of this breaking change in the migration guide? Is it intentionally left out or do you plan to restore it for v6? FWIW I found this very useful, so that components don't have to manually read the location. IIRC there is more justification for this feature in the PR which initially added it in v5.

Oh, no, not again 🤦🏻‍♂️ Last time it took two years to merge my PR for v5, which implemented this functionality.

Can we get a PR to add it back? V6 is a rewrite, which is why it didn't come over.

We should keep this open because it represents a breaking change and many people could be affected.
