Function for type-safe building of URL strings

[chinanderm]

Apologies if this exists already and I'm missing it, but it would be really handy if TSR had a function like React Router's href() where it can be called with type-safe parameters to return a composed string URL.

For example: href({ to: '/my/path/$var', params: { var: "foo" }) // "/my/path/foo"

I know useLinkProps() exists but it would be cool if something like this existed as a standalone function and not a React hook.

router.buildLocation()

Thanks for pointing me in this direction @schiller-manuel. Giving this a go, the to and params properties aren't aware of my routes. to is just string. I even tried it on the "Basic (file based)" example and still not type-safe.

there is indeed a regression here, thanks for pointing it out

fix is on the way in #4242

here is the example with that fix applied: https://stackblitz.com/edit/uxodvwmh?file=src%2Fmain.tsx

@schiller-manuel Yup, that solves it. Thank you!
