[Enhancement] Provide ability to specify the animation during a Shell navigation

[Cfun1]

Summary

To provide a way to specify the animation (FadeTo, TraslateTo right/left...) that will be used when issuing a shell navigation
for example Shell.Current.GoToAsync("//MainPage", true,FadeTo);

Intended Use Case

It will be used in case someone want to specify an animation during the navigation rather than the default one, like for example I want my next page to come from left, I will specify in the GoToAsync method something like:
Shell.Current.GoToAsync("//MainPage", true, TranslateToRight);

More Context

[Spec] Transitions Api #6033

Who Will Do The Work?

• I am willing to take this on myself
• Just putting this out there for someone to pick up

@Cfun1 I think this belongs in the main xamarin forms repo

[Cfun1]

I think you are right, but we will probably have to wait long to see this ready. xamarin/Xamarin.Forms#6033

@Cfun1 I'll reopen this issue since @PureWeen wants to implement a lot of cool features for Shell here. Since Forms 5.0 is released we will not see any new features there, just bug fixes and improvements.

@pictos oh nice, I was pessimiste even whan I have opened it that maybe it is not possible to achieve such feature from xct. The Shell is what is most missing here when it's about cool stuff :)

[pictos]

@Cfun1 TBH I don't know if we can do it here with the opened APIs from Shell, but we should try it (:

Thanks! However, we are no longer adding new features to Xamarin Community Toolkit, focusing on the .NET MAUI Community Toolkit.

Please open a New Feature Discussion to implement this feature in the .NET MAUI Community Toolkit.

I've posted more information about the Future Of Xamarin Community Toolkit here: https://devblogs.microsoft.com/xamarin/the-future-of-xamarin-community-toolkit/?WT.mc_id=mobile-0000-bramin
