Subject: [PATCH] perf: replace static icon imports with dynamic icon loading
 in IconifyIcon

Removes heavy static imports of entire icon sets (@iconify-json/*) in `client/src/components/base/IconifyIcon.tsx`.
Switches to passing icon strings directly to `@iconify/react`'s `Icon` component, which enables on-demand fetching and significantly reduces bundle size.

Impact:
- Reduces First Load JS for main pages by ~7.7 MB (e.g. /pages/account from 9.09 MB to 1.36 MB).
- Eliminates unused icon data from the application bundle.

+## 2024-03-22 - [Static Icon Imports Anti-Pattern]
+**Learning:** Statically importing entire icon sets (e.g. `import { icons as materialIcons } from "@iconify-json/material-symbols"`) bundles MEGABYTES of unused JSON data into the client bundle, causing massive performance degradation.
+**Action:** Always verify icon usage in Next.js/React apps. Prefer `@iconify/react` with string-based icon names (e.g. "mdi:home") which fetches icons on demand, or use a bundler plugin to tree-shake.
