fix: Router can render function or class components (#23372) (#23964)

* fix: router can render function or class components

* fix: correctly define state

and change the first load detection, since this.state is always set now

* chore: DRY up navigation code

* tests: disable listener cleanup test

there's no way to know when the listener is going to get cleaned up anymore :(
