Render an IconData in the Flame Engine

[imaNNeo]

Problem to solve

In the Flutter widgets, we have Icon that allows you to render an IconData in the widget tree. But there is no similar concept/component in the Flame engine

Proposal

I suggest to create something like IconComponent that allows you to render and IconData in the Flame Component System.

This way, we will also be able to use tabler_icons (because it provides IconData)

You can also achieve this similarly by just loading the icons packages directly as a font file and working with either TextComponent or implementing your own renderers.

If anyone is keen to work on this I think an IconComponent could be a cool addition.
