First mentioned on StackOverflow with:
https://stackoverflow.com/questions/78035103/in-django-is-it-possible-to-
use-reverse-redirect-with-a-view-function-not-stri

This is because the `.reverse_dict` dictionary is not populated with view
functions, or at least not if there is an `app_name` around line 563 of
`resolvers.py`:
https://github.com/django/django/blob/6feaad9113fd38ba3970032d2b7856c77403e29e/django/urls/resolvers.py#L563-L567

A patch is quite simple: look in the `.reverse_dict` of the subpath, and
propagate the values to the upper level in case these are callable (see
patch).

But the question is of course if this approach is sound and complete.
