Router push programmatically with default params as null

Steps to reproduce

Using the following code and assigning params to null does not route correctly.

methods: {
    navigate(route, params = null) {
        this.$router.push(route, {
            params: params
        }
    }
}

What is expected?

Expects the route to navigate properly even when the param is null.

What is actually happening?

Router is throwing the errror message:
Uncaught TypeError: Cannot use 'in' operator to search for 'id' in null

Hi!
Please make sure to follow the Issue Reporting Guidelines before opening an issue next time. The reproduction is mandatory...

Params must be an object, it can be empty though 🙂

@posva I was editing my codepen, so temporarily removed the link. However, I guess your reply might have solved my problem. Thank you.
