Prevent reach/router Redirect Error Screen In Dev

When using @reach/router's <Redirect> with tools like create-react-app and Gatsby, you'll get those tools' development-mode error screen overlays whenever a redirect happens. This has to do with how @reach/router utilizes componentDidCatch to change the path without a render. That error screen overlay can get annoying though. Prevent it with the noThrow prop.

return (
  <Redirect to={anotherPath} noThrow />
);
