Fired when navigating to the specified URL is being enhanced by the router.
When the `navigate()` method is called or a "pjax" link is clicked, this
event will be fired if: the browser is HTML5-history enabled, and the router
has a route-handler for the specified URL.
This is a useful event to listen to for adding a visual loading indicator
while the route handlers are busy handling the URL change.
@event navigate
@param {String} url The URL that the router will dispatch to its route
handlers in order to fulfill the enhanced navigation "request".
@param {Event} [originEvent] The event that caused the navigation, usually
this would be a click event from a "pjax" anchor element.
@param {Boolean} [replace] Whether or not the current history entry will be
replaced, or a new entry will be created. Will default to `true` if the
specified `url` is the same as the current URL.
@param {Boolean} [force=false] Whether the enhanced navigation should occur
even in browsers without HTML5 history.

This makes it easy to enhance the navigation between the URLs of an application
in HTML5 history capable browsers by delegating to the router to fulfill the
"request" and seamlessly falling-back to using standard full-page reloads in
older, less-capable browsers.
