[pygtk] Calendar Widget

[Samuel Abels]

So I did continue to work on this after all. The calendar is now pretty
much feature complete, the only missing feature I can think of is
recurring events. If somebody wants to add that, great, but it is not
going to be me. Mandatory screencast:

Changes include:
- Multi-Day events are now properly displayed as such.
- Two types of events: All day events and "normal" events.
- Events may have color assigned.
- Keyboard navigation using the cursor keys works.
- The calendar now has a event-clicked event.

That said, I am not planning to work on this further (except for fixing
bugs). The package is here:

Have fun!
