Describe the Feature Request

Ionic React currently uses React Router 5, which is tagged as classic on yarn.

React Router v6 received a stable release on November 3, 2021. Three years passed and Ionic released Ionic React versions 6, 7, and 8, but none of these supported React Router 6.

It would be great to be able to use a version of React Router that is actively being updated and makes use of the new features in React 18 and 19.

Describe the Use Case

React Router 6 adds features with React 18 and 19 that v5 does not.

Describe Preferred Solution

@ionic/react-router should update to React Router 6.

Issues Fixed in React Router 6 but not 5

React Router 5 is only getting critical security fixes since development has effectively ended.
