TODO:

• TODO: this component is a work in progress and needs to more closely match existing examples
• TODO: is TopNav the right name? What's it called in other GDS styles/patterns?
• TODO: (The name Header is ambiguous)
• TODO: #205 Use context api and/or render props for active navigation items
• TODO: Vertical alignment here needs some work, perhaps should be its own component
• TODO: Icon should be lined up with font baseline, e.g. vertical-align: baseline
