Description

In order to simplify navigation on the watch, it may be good to make it so that there is only a single episode screen in the backstack at a time instead of making it possible to have multiple different episodes in the backstack.

This was brought up [here](https://github.com/Automattic/pocket-casts-android/pull/908#issuecomment-1526017347).
