Recent synced tab should retrieve hero image URL from synced history

[MatthewTighe]

Currently, a centered favicon is being displayed in the recent synced tab on the homescreen. A better image can be retrieved by looking up the previewImageUrl for the Places history entry (which is Sync'd), and using that instead of the iconUrl attached to tabs.

See the bookmark implementation for how this can be done.

Verified on the latest Nightly 105.0a1 (2022-07-28) build with the following result:

• Sometimes the favicon is not display at first only after refresh or resync (As seen on the last two screenshots with the Telegraph site as an example)

Device used: Google Pixel 4 (Android 12).

I tested the issue on Fenix Nightly 105.0a1 (2022-08-18) and for many websites the favicon do not not sync. I've attached a screenshot illustrating the issue, on the left are the favicons loaded on the original device and on the right is what these favicons look when synced to another device.

Devices used:

• Google Pixel 6 (Android 13)
• Samsung Galaxy S22 (Android 12)

@LaurentiuApahideanSV I don't believe we can display favicons or hero images until a site has been loaded locally. Had the tabs above been visited on the device that they are only displaying letters on?

I'm now seeing that we may be missing preview image URLs from our history object. I filed #26591 to investigate further
