Default as null

[zbeyens]

For a better DX, I want to use a default value instead of null to unset a query. Here is the util I've came with:

import { useQueryState } from 'nuqs';

export const useNullableQueryState = <T>(
  nullValue: T,
  ...args: Parameters<typeof useQueryState<T>>
) => {
  const [state, setState] = useQueryState(...args);

  return [
    (state ?? nullValue) as T,
    (value: T) => {
      void setState(value === nullValue ? null : (value as any));
    },
  ] as const;
};

Is there a nuqs way to achieve that? If not, it would be a great addition.

Would #488 fit your purpose?

It's been discussed a few times now, I'll probably add an option to clear the query when setting to the default (with a disclaimer in the docs about changing defaults).

@zbeyens I've opened #493 to implement this option, let me know what you think there.
