FastImage for Avatar

🚀 Feature Proposal

It would be nice to use react-native-fast-image for avatar component.

Motivation

This library includes caching and other features needed in a real-world applications.

Example

import { Avatar } from '@ui-kitten/components';

const YourImage = () => (
  <Avatar
    size='giant'
    source={{ uri: 'https://unsplash.it/400/400?image=1' }}
  />
)

@kockok you should use ImageComponent and not component

@lesmo thanks for the details. Yes this makes more sense to extend this with a property, but it requires other libraries to be compatible at least with a props that the default Image accepts. I won’t to create a middlewares to support each of them 😄 So what I think is use a component prop which accepts a class component, like it is implemented in lists, e.g with ListHeaderComponent. This way users can do all the specific library things in a separate component.
