Support EDS categories
If I understand correctly, EDS has support for categories (and their icons) already.
We should support that and show the category icon in the sidebar and view and allow the category to be set in the event editing and creation dialog

It looks like EDS doesn't get or install the icons to the regular icon theme. I'm not sure there's a convention for this already. But we could just make our own -symbolic icons in the "categories" folder with the prefix "event".
So we'd want to create some icons like "event-birthday-symbolic" and "event-holiday-symbolic" etc

here are the built-in (and translated) categories from libedataserver.
We probably don't need to adopt all of these immediately, but here's the list that we'd need icons for:
- [ ] Anniversary
- [x] Birthday (
event-birthday-symbolic) - [ ] Business (Suitcase?)
- [ ] Competition (Maybe a trophy?)
- [x] Favorites (
user-bookmarks-symbolic) ~Gifts~ (Seems like the same icon as birthday) - [ ] Goals/Objectives
- [ ] Holiday
- [ ] Holiday Cards ~Hot Contacts~ (what.)
- [x] Ideas (symlink or copy
emoji-objects-symbolic) - [x] International (symlink or copy status/
airplane-mode-symbolic) - [ ] Key Customer
- [ ] Miscellaneous
- [ ] Personal
- [x] Phone Calls (
call-start-symbolic) - [ ] Strategies
- [ ] Suppliers
- [ ] Time & Expenses
- [ ] VIP
- [ ] Waiting
Something to think about is that it looks like EDS applies these on a per-event basis. Seeing how we live in a multi-device world with invites being a thing, maybe it would be better to apply icons per-calendar. Might be less shit work
