<UserAvatar size="48" name="Madonna" />This module uses react-style inline styles to narrow the api, yet allows for reasonable extensibility by exposing
a number of DOM classes. Take a look (or simply use) example.css for ideas.
The fallback avatar's color may be set by passing in the color prop, or you can customize the range of colors
used by passing in an array of colors. The component uses a simple calculation to consistently use the same
color for the same user's name every time.
If the component determines that the color chosen was visually light, it will apply a UserAvatar-light class to the root element.
If the colors chosen was dark, it will apply UserAvatar-light. Take advantage of these to use the appropriately colored text or border
when styling the component.
