Bug Report

Ionic version:

[ ] 4.x
[x] 5.x

Current behavior:

Swipe gesture cannot be disabled on native iOS or Android devices. When swiping back, if using [swipeGesture]=true the animation/back gesture will trigger in addition to browser navigation, resulting in what appears to be two simultaneous back navigation events, and sometimes, very inconsistent app state on completion.

Navigate to any URL on an iPad or Android device with browser swipe-back functionality. Navigate to another ion-page/route.

Drag finger from left edge of screen to right. Swipe gesture still triggers back navigation.

Expected behavior:
With [swipeGesture]=false, The swipe gesture should be prevented and browser back navigation should not occur. With [swipeGesture]=true only one of the browser back navigation or ionic built in back-transitions should occur, not both.

Steps to reproduce:

Generate a sample ionic application:

ionic start myApp sidemenu
ionic serve --external

set [swipeGesture]='false' on ion-router-outlet in app.component.html

Navigate to the URL on an iPad or Android device with browser swipe-back functionality. Navigate to another page.

Drag finger from left edge of screen to right. Swipe gesture still triggers back navigation.
