tap_action navigate #874

Issue Description: In the compass-card, when using navigate within tap_action, it opens a new tab. However, other cards behave differently by opening the path in the same tab. This inconsistency could be confusing for users expecting uniform behavior across different cards.

Steps to Reproduce:

  1. Use compass-card.
  2. Apply tap_action with navigate: /path/to/dashboard.
  3. Observe the behavior as it opens a new tab.

example:

tap_action:
  action: navigate
  navigation_path: /map

Expected Behavior: Consistency in behavior across cards; the navigate action within compass-card should open the path in the same tab, similar to other cards.

Additional Information: This behavior not only affects the user experience but also has implications when using the Home Assistant app. It results in the page opening in the web browser instead of navigating within the app to the correct dashboard, disrupting the seamless app experience.

Thank you for creating such an excellent card! Overall, it has been a great addition, and this adjustment would further enhance its usability.

The way the tap_action opens in another tab is specifically for my usecase, however I can change default behaviour and make opening in a tab an configurable option.

That would be really great, thank you so much! :)
