Research direction

Start by locating the BottomNavigationView and BottomNavigationItem implementations in the repository, then inspect how navigation items are created and exposed. Confirm that a public item lookup and title update can be supported, and verify the completed behavior with the project's existing tests or Android sample.

Description

Hello,

I currently have a tab with the user location, and would like to dynamically change the text of the BottomNavigationItem.

Do you plan to add something like:

bottomNavigationView.getItem(0).setTitle("NewTitle")?

Thank a lot for the awesome lib!
