Description

## Issue Description:

The current MetaMask Address Book functionality does not allow users to save Solana addresses. Attempting to add a Solana address produces an error ("No resolution for domain provided"), preventing users from storing Solana contacts.

### Current Behavior:

* When users attempt to save a valid Solana address, an error message is displayed.
* Users cannot currently save Solana addresses to the built-in address book.

### Expected Behavior:

* Users should be able to store Solana addresses seamlessly, just as Ethereum addresses.
* No error message should be displayed when entering a valid Solana address.

### Steps to Reproduce:

1. Open MetaMask Extension and navigate to the Address Book.
2. Click on "New Contact."
3. Enter a valid Solana public address into the Ethereum public address field.
4. Observe the displayed error and the inability to save the contact.

### Environment:

* MetaMask Extension version: 13.0
* Browser: Observed on Chrome, Firefox, and Brave browsers.

### Screenshots:

### Suggested Solution:

* Extend Address Book support to recognize and validate Solana addresses, ensuring cross-chain compatibility and user convenience.

### Additional Context:

* Flagged during recent UAT sessions, significantly impacting Solana support and usability.
