What's Changed

Minor release bringing further development to 5.0 stack implementation, nice improvements to Split API and other various improvements & fixes.

[!caution] Most importantly this is the last release we've tested with legacy architecture.

From 4.25.0 on, we no longer plan to support RN versions below 0.82, which naturally comes with drop of support for legacy arch. We plan to gradually remove the legacy architecture related code.

I want to also announce our plans regarding approach to 5.0 transition. At the moment we plan to keep releasing v4 line till we're "close to ready" with all APIs we've planed for 5.0 major. We plan to stabilise Tabs API on v4 line. When we're "close to ready" we'll release a series (rather not many) of 5.0-alpha/beta versions & after 5.0 stable release v4 branch will stay for some, not long, time in maintenance mode. The downstream library implementers are already adopting new 5.0 APIs, they should be available for testing in the navigation library of your choice shortly.
