Prevent repeated rendering of Announcements #1376

Description

@pleary

Looking at usage metrics for Announcement API calls, the Android app is making more than 6 times as many calls for Announcements, per user, compared to the legacy iOS app. When loading the screen that display Announcements, that component appears to flicker, presumably re-rendering multiple times, each times making an API call. The behavior doesn't seem to be completely consistent - an installation might make 2 or 3 calls, or up to 10 calls for Announcements within a few seconds.

Could we make sure that Announcement components are rendered once per screen, ultimately making one API call per screen? This will help us have a more consistent comparison of number of API calls between the Android and iOS app, which we can use to make assessment about the effectiveness of Announcements based on impression rate.
