Discussion Use navigationBarBackButtonHidden(_:) to hide the back button for this view. This modifier only takes effect when this view is inside of and visible within a NavigationStack or a NavigationSplitView in narrow size classes. The example below demonstrates how to hide the navigation back button for a view within a navigation stack: NavigationStack {    List {        NavigationLink("Mint") {            Color.mint                .navigationBarBackButtonHidden()        }    }    .navigationTitle("Colors") }
