fix: the transaction detail screen decodes a token transfer against the token contract (closes #515)

The screen decoded a transaction's data against the history entry's `to`,
which for a token transfer row is the transfer's recipient. The decoded
Token line named the recipient, and the amount read "decimals unknown" for
a token the wallet tracks. It now decodes against the address the
explorer's answer for that transaction says it was sent to, which is the
right address for every kind of row. tests/tokenTransferDetail.test.js
opens a row made by the real history parser and checks the Token,
Recipient and Amount lines.
