Cannot retrieve Link's props from createLocalizedPathnamesNavigation

[JulienRst]

Description

Hello everyone,

I need a <Link /> component with special things (like analytics 👻 ), so I figured that I should create another link let's say <LinkWithAnalytics /> that would forward ref to <Link />.

Let's keep it simple :

const { Link, redirect, usePathname, useRouter } =
  createLocalizedPathnamesNavigation({
    locales: ['en', 'fr'],
    localePrefix: 'as-needed',
    pathnames,
  });

const AnalyticLinks = React.forwardRef<
  React.ElementRef<typeof Link>, 
  React.ComponentPropsWithoutRef<typeof Link>
>(props, ref) => {
    return <Link ref={ref} ...props  /> // <-- error here
} 

Property 'href' is missing in type '{ ref: ForwardedRef; }'

So I just tried to check what is inside typeof Link and it's a bit hard to read but eventually result in {}.

It mostly related to HOW this is typed, because when used directly the Link have the correct props AND typed href from pathnames.

And we're not safe from an error on my part 🤭

If I can be of any form of help do not hesitate to reach out!

Kind regards 😄

Reproduction description

1. Open editor
2. Check navigation.ts and acknowledge the uses of createLocalizedPathnamesNavigation
3. Check analytics-link.tsx and acknowledge the error

Expected behaviour

As I was working with createSharedPathnamesNavigation before, I would expect that typeof Link give us the same props (with the href typed from pathnames) than the typeof Link from createSharedPathnamesNavigation.

Please see How can I compose the link with its href prop? in the docs for Link (make sure you have "Localized pathnames" selected).

Going to move this to a discussion since it's a usage question and not a bug report.
