MMM needs a favicon/app icon #44

Using the Add to home screen feature of browsers is nice for MMM in particular because it removes the URL bar and other browser chrome, making gestures more predictable, giving the app more of a "native app" feel, and providing the user with more screen real-estate to compose their game.

However, because we don't have a favicon, the app looks totally lame on the user's home screen:

@chloeatplay, would you be interested in designing a quick favicon for this? It looks like the highest resolution we'll want is for iOS Retina, which prefers 144x144px. Maybe just take the upside-down friend or the minicade box and size it to that?

I guess it'd be nice if we could have a really tiny size that's reasonably legible too, since favicons (shown in the URL bar while in the browser) can be shown at a mere 16x16.
