Research direction

Start with app/util/blockies.js and the linked react-native-jazzicon README to understand the existing BlockieIcons and JazzIcons implementations. Define the Turbo Native Modules approach and its scope before changing the JavaScript implementations; done means both icon types are converted and their performance improves without a stated acceptance test.
