Describe the bug

To Reproduce

I have created a demo app to reproduce the issue:
https://github.com/tujlaky/nativescript-tabs-demo

The following navigation steps would break the app:

  • Item 1
  • Show more
  • Press the back arrow in the ActionBar twice
  • Open the Browse tab
  • Press Go outside button
  • Press the back arrow in the ActionBar
  • Open the Home tab
  • It show Item 1

Expected behavior

It should how the last active view.

Research direction

Start by running the reproduction app at github.com/tujlaky/nativescript-tabs-demo with the listed NativeScript, Angular, and Android Runtime versions. Follow the reported navigation sequence and inspect the TabsComponent and nested-outlet navigation behavior. Done means returning to the Home tab shows the last active view instead of Item 1.
