Fixes #572 (and maybe others?)
Initially discussed in #660
This is going to be part 1.
I removed all the
GLib.TimeZone
logic that I could and instead used libical functions. This should solve issues with unrecognized timezones, since every event has a timezone that is defined within libical. For example, it will solve #572 because it doesn't need to map the timezone in libical's data to a GLib.TimeZone, which was failing.As discussed on Slack, I plan to remove as many instances of GLib.DateTime as possible in a future PR in favor of using ICal.Time throughout the codebase. But I think that this is a mostly complete and self-contained change, so to break it up as much as possible I'm submitting it as its own PR.
