Subject: [PATCH] feat(perf): memoize icon lookups in IconifyIcon

Memoize the `iconData` results in `client/src/components/base/IconifyIcon.tsx` to turn $O(N)$ object property lookups into an $O(1)$ dictionary fetch, significantly reducing main thread block during massive layouts renders. Also fixed up caching null results to prevent repetitive missing-icon lookups. Added a learning to the Bolt journal.

+## 2024-05-25 - Iconify Object Lookup Memoization
+**Learning:** In the client application, the `IconifyIcon` wrapper component dynamically searches through massive JSON objects (`@iconify-json/*`) inside `getIconData()` for every rendered icon if caching is not implemented. Because the app uses icons heavily in layouts and UI components, omitting an upfront string-to-data cache causes repeated $O(N)$ lookup costs over thousands of keys that synchronously block the main thread.
+**Action:** Always verify that high-frequency UI components, especially those decoding layout icons from massive dictionaries, memoize their lookup results using an $O(1)$ structure (like a `Map`) to prevent severe cascading render delays.
