Description

### Current Limitation

When using @asgardeo/react-router, navigating to a secured route without being logged in redirects the user to Asgardeo/IS for authentication.

After successful authentication, the user is redirected to the application root (/) instead of the originally requested secured route. This results in a poor user experience. Ideally, the user should be redirected back to the exact secured route they intended to access.

.

### Suggested Improvement

This can be implemented without changes to Asgardeo/IS by leveraging the OAuth2 state parameter. The SDK can encode the currently active path in the state parameter (only if the route is valid and marked as secured) and restore it after successful authentication
