After creating an entry the url isn't updated #149

When you open entries/new?journalId=journalId when creating an entry, the URL doesn't update after the entry is created. A user may start writing in the entry but if they refresh the page they go through the new entry flow.

This can be a poor experience for a user because they may think that their entry has gone. This is especially problematic if a user doesn't update the entry title. For example, if you open up to 2019/04/09 spend half an hour writing and then refresh the page and see an empty entry with the same date you may think that you lost everything.
