`useFormContext` should be available through children

See original GitHub issue

Since we are using react-hook-form. It would be nice to have access to stuff like isSubmitting from the form children without having to pass it down the three.

Right now, the form is controlling the label of the button to indicate the form is submiting but if you are working with UI libs like Chakra, you might want to use somethnig like <Button isLoading />

It took me some time, but I finally understood this issue 😅

If we always render a FormProvider inside our forms, it will enable the users to useFormContext anywhere inside any form. The solution is simple and looks harmless. I’ll reopen the issue until we implement it.
