Summary

Currently, <BreadcrumbItem> can be rendered as an anchor link or a span. But given that this is a React library, and the overwhelming majority of React apps use react-router, <BreadcrumbItem> should at least be able to render a <Link>.

This can probably be accomplished by refactoring <BreadcrumbItem> to accept as={Link}.
