[PATCH] Format links in event descriptions for a nice QoL

[Calvin Morrison via tde-devels <devels@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Team,

First patch in a long time ;) hope this is an ok way to do it since I do not have repo rights. Anyway, here it is. See attached screenshot

This allows you to click through links in events in description fields

wherever the description field is displayed from libkcal.

This is useful since links to virtual meetings are often attached in the

description field in recent years.

See attached image for example.

Thanks,

Calvin
