How to force re-render screen when layout is re-render ?

[JamesHemery]

In some cases, we want the screen to be re-rendered when the layout is.

For example, using the twrnc library to use tailwindcss with react-native, we need to add a hook in the root layout (useDeviceContext) that watches the dimensions and color scheme of the device.

In a React Navigation app, this will re-render the screen and apply the new style properties. But with expo-router, the screen is not re-rendered.

A workaround is modifying the root stack key as soon as the dimensions or color scheme change. But this seems to be a temporary solution.
