make FlowRouter.go accept route names

See original GitHub issue

I think it would be a good idea if FlowRouter.go could accept route names as well as route paths. Using route names makes sure your code doesn’t break when you change the route path.

you should add it on the doc (I read the github doc and I never saw that), that’s a pity because I never appreciated put url instead of route name, it’s really not proper as the url are not always definitive.
