Description

I would like an option to make each dot into a button that navigates to its respective slide. Does anyone else think this is a good option?

A simple approach could be to add a property called renderDot(index:number, isActive:boolean, onPress:function) that would provide a dot, like so:

const renderDot = (index, isActive, onPress) => {
return <Button onPress={onPress} ....
}
<Swiper renderDot={renderDot} />

Or, instead of adding a new property, dot and activeDot could be enhanced to support a function that returns a react element instead of just a react element. If @leecade is okay with it, I'll submit the PR

Research direction

Start at the Swiper component and its existing dot and activeDot rendering, which the issue identifies as the relevant entry point; no file or test is specified. Confirm the intended API with maintainers, then verify that each rendered dot navigates to its corresponding slide and preserves active-state behavior.
