Description
Hello,
I'm building an application with offline routing support. After implementing the solution as described in the [documentation](https://docs.mapbox.com/android/navigation/guides/advanced/offline/), I faced an issue where offline (onboard) routes are only generated as a fallback. The SDK attempts to make an online request first, and after it fails (due to a timeout), it returns a locally built route.
Is there a way to configure the SDK to build routes entirely offline?
Navigation SDK version: 3.7.0-beta.1

Research direction
Start with the linked advanced/offline documentation and the reported behavior in Navigation SDK 3.7.0-beta.1. Determine whether the SDK supports configuring fully offline route building rather than using onboard routing only after an online timeout. Done means confirming a supported configuration or defining the required behavior clearly.
