Twitterstop
Stops listening to the data observable and tears down any setup bindings.
route.stop()
Stops listening to changes in the URL as well as the observable defined in data, and removes the current binding.

<script type="module">
import "//unpkg.com/mock-url@^5.0.0";
import {route} from "can";
route.register("{page}", { page: "" });
route.start();
route.data.page = "home";
// Changing the route is not synchronous
setTimeout(() => {
route.stop();
route.data.page = "cart"; // hash is still "home"
console.log( location.hash ) //-> "#!home"
}, 1000);
</script>
Use
If you need to disconnect an observable from the URL, call stop. To reconnect, call start again.
In the example shows a possible use reason for stopping can-route.
When the user logs out the page doesn't change, though the hash still updates.
Notice the logout/login functions start and stop route. When logged out you can't change the page,
even though the hash still updates.
