Description
Currently, there's no way to listen to all events from the NavigationContainerRef. You need to specify which event you need to be listening to. Having this ability would be useful for developer tools.

Research direction
Start by locating the NavigationContainerRef entry point and its existing event-listening API. Trace how event names are currently required, then define what an all-events subscription should expose for developer tools. Done means callers can listen without specifying an individual event while existing event subscriptions continue to work.
