Description

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

Contacts don't have pictures, by default, and it's ok.

Describe the solution you'd like

If I have a match with "name surname" on the Photos (or Memories) apps, the person thumbnail could be used as the contact picture.

Describe alternatives you've considered

At the moment, just select the pictures by hand, but it's quite a long work

Research direction
