fix(mobile): render assigned project icons in chat list

[SunkenInTime]

Fixes #12801

What Changed

Mobile ProjectFavicon now takes the project's projectIcon override and renders it before falling back to the favicon image or folder glyph:

• emoji overrides render the emoji.
• monogram overrides render the assigned text in a colored tile.
• lucide overrides render a colored monogram derived from the project name (same derivation as web's automatic fallback), using the assigned color.

projectIcon is passed through every mobile call site: thread-list headers and rows (v1 and v2), archived threads, the settings project overview, and the new-task project picker. Projects without an override keep the existing favicon/folder behavior. A small lib/projectIcon.ts helper resolves the override to a glyph.

Why

Web and desktop persist projectIcon on the project record, but the mobile component only accepted faviconPath, so every assigned icon showed as the folder glyph on Android and iOS.

Lucide trade-off. Rendering the exact Lucide icon needs lucide-react-native, which is a new dependency that registers the full icon set (roughly 1 MB of JS before Hermes bytecode). AppSymbol.tsx explicitly avoids eagerly registering whole icon sets. This PR takes the no-dependency route: a Lucide override becomes a colored monogram so the project is still distinguishable and keeps its chosen color. It is not pixel-identical to web, and exact Lucide rendering can be a follow-up if the dependency is acceptable.

Reproduction

1. Run the dev server and pair the Android dev client with it.
2. Create three projects and assign icons from web: a Lucide icon (rocket, violet), an emoji (🍎), and a monogram (M7, orange).
3. Open the mobile chat list.

Expected: the assigned icons appear next to each project name. Actual: every project shows the folder glyph.

UI Changes

Android emulator, chat list:

Verification

From apps/mobile:

• npx tsc --noEmit — clean
• vp lint on changed files — clean
• Android debug build installed on emulator-5554, chat list, project picker, and settings overview checked manually (screenshots above). iOS not verified (no macOS host).

Checklist

• This PR is small and focused
• I explained what changed and why
• I included before/after screenshots for any UI changes
• I included a video for animation/interaction changes (n/a)

Summary by CodeRabbit

• New Features
  • Project icons now appear consistently across thread lists, archived threads, and project settings.
  • Projects can display emoji or colored monogram icons; projects without a custom icon continue to use their favicon or folder symbol.

Approvability

Verdict: Approved at bd0422d

Macroscope's review found this PR approvable — This is a focused mobile UI bug fix that renders already-persisted project icon overrides while preserving the existing favicon and folder fallback behavior. The changes are localized to icon resolution and a small set of display call sites, with no schema, deployment, security, billing, default, or static-analysis impact.

Tested 17fe9ff6f on Android (emulator, installed dev client + final Metro bundle, isolated test data).

• Default and legacy chat lists show violet NA for nebula (lucide → monogram fallback), 🍎 for silver-orchard, orange M7 for m7-forge, and the folder fallback for server.
• Choose-project picker, each project overview, and archived project headers show the assigned icons.
• Icons stay readable in light and dark themes; no crashes or blank icons.

Not covered: favicon-image projects (no fixture had one) and iOS.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

Mobile project screens now pass project icon overrides to ProjectFavicon. The component resolves emoji and monogram glyphs, renders them instead of fetching a favicon, and retains its favicon path when no glyph resolves.

Changes

Project icon rendering

Layer / File(s)	Summary
Icon resolution and monograms apps/mobile/src/lib/projectIcon.ts	New helpers derive monograms, resolve icon overrides, count glyphs, and map icon colors to Tailwind classes.
ProjectFavicon glyph rendering apps/mobile/src/components/ProjectFavicon.tsx	ProjectFavicon accepts an optional icon override and renders a resolved emoji or colored monogram. It bypasses favicon fetching when a glyph resolves. The folder fallback symbol now uses the requested size.
Project icon propagation apps/mobile/src/features/archive/ArchivedThreadsScreen.tsx, apps/mobile/src/features/settings/SettingsProjectOverviewRouteScreen.tsx, apps/mobile/src/features/threads/NewTaskRouteScreen.tsx, apps/mobile/src/features/threads/thread-list-v2-items.tsx	Project-related screens pass icon overrides to ProjectFavicon. Thread rows and the settings overview use the representative project's title.

Add a non-BMP project-name case.

projectMonogram uses Unicode normalization and code-point iteration. The current table only covers ASCII titles. Add a non-BMP letter case so a future UTF-16 indexing change cannot split the rendered character.

Based on learnings: tests must cover edge cases, and first-character extraction must remain Unicode-aware.
