Nesting leads to multiple mounts

[rohovdmytro]

Which package manager are you using? (Yarn is recommended)

yarn

Summary

A quite simple navigation structure leads to screens beings mounted multiple times.

Memoization does not help. the screen remounts, not re-renders

I would argue that this bug is close to mission critical as many things are tight to component being mounted. Such features as analytics / data loading / animations become sadly broken.

I've spent quite some time restructuring components trying to avoid nesting, but in a more complicated scenarios (with auth, screen groups, etc) it's very hard. Found zero workarounds.
