Twitter share button doesn't work on Android 12

[sakabar]

Problem

I put this button on my web site, and pushed it on Android 12. Twitter application opened automatically, but the following message was shown.

The term you entered did not bring up any results. Please try again later.

Cause

The url of TwitterShareButton https://github.com/nygardk/react-share/blob/454860844d11d11d23112db1982feaf0ef4f1f09/src/TwitterShareButton.ts

    'https://twitter.com/share' +

According to the Twitter help page, the correct share url is https://twitter.com/intent/tweet .

[Twitter help page] How to add the Tweet button to your website https://help.twitter.com/en/using-twitter/add-twitter-share-button

Make a share button with the explained way. The url path of the share button is https://twitter.com/intent/tweet? ... .

When we access https://twitter.com/share, then it automatically redirect to https://twitter.com/intent/tweet normally. However, this doesn't work on Android OS.

I made a PR #485 for this issue. I would be happy if you could merge this and publish a new version of react-share on npm.
