Description

**Describe the usability problem**
Currently on MetaMask iOS, when adding a custom token, I only see a default icon.

**Screenshots**
n/a

**Expected behavior**
It would be great if during or after adding a custom token, the icon used for that token could be specified.

Research direction

Start by tracing the MetaMask iOS custom-token flow and how token icons are currently selected or displayed. The work is done when a custom token can use a specified icon during or after addition instead of only the default icon; no files or tests are named in the issue.
