Automatic `aria-current` on `Link` and other components accepting `href` prop

[arzatskis]

Provide a general summary of the feature here

Seems it's not there, event when following client side routing guide. Would be nice to have a easy, non-manual way to add this

🤔 Expected Behavior?

This could work same way as react-routers NavLink

😯 Current Behavior

Currently you can only manually pass <Link aria-current /> and isCurrent in render props will be available based on that, but you need to manually track that everywhere (maybe I'm missing something)

💁 Possible Solution

aria-current could be appended automatically or some kind of prop for RouterProvider to enable this maybe?

🔦 Context

This would be helpful not only for Links in navigation, but also other elements accepting href prop. E.g. <Row href="?preview=uuid" /> once clicked, panel is opened up with details and one could style current row based on that

So at the moment aria-current is automatically set for Links in the Breadcrumbs component but otherwise it should only be set if the link is in a group of related links and need to be communicated to a AT user that it is styled differently. It should also not be used if said link is actually in a selection context (like a tab/row), aria-selected should be used instead.

@LFDanLu then it's impossible to replicate the NavLink behaviour from react-router, since isCurrent is always false when using Link+client side routing. Maybe RAC should have a NavLink as well, or help we figure out when the current link is active or not.
