📚 Description

Add functionality redirect user back to requested page after authentication
Added a redirect query parameter to auth middleware navigateTo when a guest visits authenicated page.
This will help users redirect back to previous page after sign in.
Currently when guest tries to access a protected page they are redirected to /login page and after login they are redirect to default callbackUrl unless they specify callbackUrl in the signIn function.

This feature will help automatically redirect a user back to the page they requested after login. For example, if they requested to access '/profile' and they are redirected to login page, after successful login, they will be redirected back to '/profile'. They can also override this by providing a callbackUrl in the signIn function as it is currently

Love this feature! Thank you so much for your PR ❤️

One suggestion I would have is to respect the addDefaultCallbackUrl option inside the middleware and only add the callback URL to the redirect if it is enabled!

This should be a pretty straight forward adjustments, where you check if globalAppMiddleware.addDefaultCallbackUrl is set before adding query.redirect to the navigateTo call!

Functionally approved 🥳

@andychukse Thanks for your PR! I think it will bring local provider in parity with what authjs already does in terms of redirects
