Description

### Description

To enhance the visual appeal and organization of the SwiftPaste component, we should introduce support for icons/categories for each suggestion. This will allow users to identify and categorize their suggestions more effectively visually. Additionally, we can include a default set of icons that target common categories such as Personal, Work, Web, Address, Mail, and more.

### Suggested Solution

To implement icon support for issues, I propose the following steps:

1. Enhance the data model for suggestions to include a property for the icon/category.
2. Introduce a new input field on the Options page where users can select an icon or category for each suggestion.
3. Provide a default set of icons that users can choose from, targeting main categories relevant to the use case of SwiftPaste.
4. Allow users to associate an icon or category with each suggestion by selecting from the available options.
5. Display the selected icon or category in the left padding of the SwiftPaste component for each suggestion.
6. Ensure that the visual representation of the icon or category is consistent and easily recognizable.
7. Consider the accessibility implications and provide appropriate alternative text or ARIA attributes for screen readers.
8. Provide an option to customize or upload custom icons for users who prefer personalized icons or have specific category needs.

**Expected Outcome**
- Users can associate icons or categories with their suggestions, enhancing visual organization and recognition.
- The Options page will include a new input field for selecting icons or categories for each suggestion.
- A default icon set will target common categories relevant to the SwiftPaste use case.
- The selected icon or category will be displayed in the left padding of the SwiftPaste component for each suggestion.
- The visual representation of the icon or category will be consistent, easily recognizable, and accessible.
- Users will have the option to customize or upload their icons for personalized or specific category needs.

**Additional Notes**

Ensure that the default icons set covers various main categories and is visually distinct and representative. Provide clear instructions or tooltips to guide users in selecting icons or categories for their suggestions. Consider the performance impact of displaying icons and optimize rendering if necessary.
