to is not resolved as router-link

[jd-solanki]

Describe the bug

Here's simple example:

<b-link :to="{ name: item.route }" href="http://google.com">Link</b-link>

<router-link :to="{ name: item.route }" href="http://google.com">Link</router-link>

In the above two lines of code if item.route is undefined then b-link still resolve the route and give the unexpected route link. Whereas if you use router-link then it somehow resolves correctly and give URL of google.com.

Steps to reproduce the bug

1. Just use above two lines
2. define item as empty object so item.route return undefined

Expected behavior

Isn't b-link should give link for google if item.route is undefined just like router-link

I checked the docs and found this:

By specifying a value in the href prop, a standard link () element will be rendered. To generate a instead, specify the route location via the to prop.

So I think here to take precedence rather than href. So, it is intentional?
