Example without hash based routing #36

First of all -- fantastic package!

I was just wondering -- do you have any example documentation on how to use rlite without hash-based routing? For example, I'd like to be able to go to https://myApp/MyRoute rather than https://myApp/#myRoute

I got it working doing this:

history.pushState = ( f => function pushState(){
    var ret = f.apply(this, arguments);
    window.dispatchEvent(new Event('pushstate'));
    window.dispatchEvent(new Event('locationchange'));
    return ret;
})(history.pushState);

history.replaceState = ( f => function replaceState(){
    var ret = f.apply(this, arguments);
    window.dispatchEvent(new Event('replacestate'));
    window.dispatchEvent(new Event('locationchange'));
    return ret;
})(history.replaceState);

window.addEventListener('popstate',()=>{
    window.dispatchEvent(new Event('locationchange'))
});

(location change example taken from here )
Then defining my routes

Then using this to hook into the custom event.

  function processNoHash() {
    // Do something useful with the result of the route
    console.log(window.location.pathname);
    document.body.textContent = route(window.location.pathname);
  }

window.addEventListener('locationchange', processNoHash);
processNoHash();

It seems to work well, but I was wondering if there was a different recommended approach, and if perhaps an example could be added to the readme.
