Created a method that is always listening to changes in the database and finds out when at least one UserAccount involved in a transaction is not present in the user_accounts db table. When such accounts are found they are retrieved in a form of a list and their information is requested to the BitShares nodes through graphenej's NetworkService and saved into the db once a response is received. The updated user account information is automatically displayed in the transactions list because of AAC's ViewModel, LiveData and Room.
