Currently when creating a calendar.event with google sync switched
on and without adding another attendee, the event is immediatly
removed from the calendar view. This is because the user_id is filtered out
of the attendee_ids before sending the values to google calendar. Then, at
the next sync, google response attendees list does not contain the user_id
so Odoo turns that into a [(3, id)] command. Thus, the corresponding event
disappear from the current calendar view even though it is still in the DB.
This fix is essentially the same as the one implemented in the
microsoft_calendar addons available from 14.0 onwards. It adds the
calendar owner if the event organizer is not null. This way, even
though the owner is not sent as an attendee, it is not removed
after google's response.

Add the possibility to stop/restart the synchronization with
Google Calendar.
Change the calendar event popover of the calendar view to
display an 'Archive' button if the event was synced at least
one.
Add some tests for the new stop/restart features.
What are the steps to reproduce your issue ?
1. Install "google_calendar"
2. Log in with "admin"
3. Create an eventX with "admin" and "demo" has attendees
4. Run "Google Calendar Synchronization" from "Scheduled Actions"
What is currently happening ?
eventX is successfully added to Google but without admin
if you sync Odoo to Google one more time, Google will overwrite eventX
and it will remove admin from attendees
What are you expecting to happen ?
Sync Odoo to Google and Google to Odoo without lost attendees
Why is this happening ?
Because there is a filter that prevent addition of current user to the attendees
How to fix the bug ?
Remove the filter

When more than one parameter is present in a message, it helps the
translation to use named placeholder. This way, the order can be
changed. It also helps the comprehension of the message.
Create an event with at least one attendee.
Synchronize the event between Odoo and Google.
Add/Remove an attendee in Google.
Observed behavior
-----------------
After synchronisation, the partner is not added/removed in Odoo
Expected behavior

The partner should be added/removed
Task 2241572
This commit refactors calendar synchronization between Odoo and Google after the
main calendar application refactoring.
This refactoring takes advantage of two new features from the Google API:
- New way of synchronizing resources efficiently[1]
Incremental sync is performed repeatedly and updates Odoo with all the changes that
happened ever since the previous sync. Each time, Odoo provides the previous sync
token it obtained from Google and stores the new sync token from the response.
- Event metadata[2]
Ability to set hidden key-value pairs with an event, called extended properties.
These extended properties are used to store the related odoo event id and the Odoo
owner id (see known limitations)
Known limitations
=================
- Let A and B be two new users (no tokens available). A creates an event in Odoo and
invites B. A is the owner of the event (user_id). Now B authenticates to his Google Calendar
account and synchronizes his calendar. We cannot send the event to A's calendar since we
don't have any access to his Google Calendar. Hence the event his sent to B's calendar.
This leads to data de-synchronisation: The owner is A in Odoo but B in Google.
The "real" owner (user A) is stored in the Google event's metadata to be able to
reconcile the owner for following synchronizations.
- Let A and B be two users of Odoo and Google Calendar. And let the Google Calendar of B
be private (e.g. if A creates an event in Google Calendar and invites B, B won't see the
event in his calendar). If A creates an event in Odoo and invites B. The event is synced
to Google Calendar of A. Now B can see the event in Odoo but he can't see it in his
Google Calendar.

The fields `start_datetime` and `stop_datetime` are the exact miror
of fields `start` and `stop` respectively.
The field `display_start` is never used.
Hence those fields are removed.

TL;DR A bit of magic and ... Pouf ... all virtual events are now real records.
Purpose
=======
The current implementation of recurring events uses "virtual events" to represents all
events in the recurrence. Only one event is stored in the database. All other events are
dynamically built and sent to the web client which sees them as real records.
This implementation is old, difficult to read (6 years of changes and bug fixes) and
has become more and more difficult to maintain.
A fresh start would be welcome.
Specification
=============
When creating a recurring event, a `calendar.recurrence.rule` record should be created.
This model holds the rrule configuration and is responsible to manage events that result
from the rrule.
When a new recurrence is created, all resulting events are also created (stored in the
database). No more virtual events.
To avoid an explosion of events, a maximum of 720 events is created. With 720 events,
a daily recurrence lasts for 2 years and a weekly recurrence lasts for 15 years.
This strategy is used by Google Calendar and seems acceptable in most cases.
A cron job could eventually be introduced to generated more events as the end comes.
This allows to introduce an new rrule end type: 'Forever'. This is actually a shortcut
to create a recurrence running for 720 events.
Inspired by Google Calendar, new possibilities are introduced when modifying a recurring
event (e.g. change the name, add an attendee):
- Modify only this particular event (the event is still part of the recurrence)
- Modify this and following events (events are still in the same recurrence)
- Modify all events
In a similar way, when updating the rrule of an event (e.g. from every Monday to every
Tuesday), the user can choose to:
- Modify this and following events: the recurrence is split. The first part remains
unchanged but now ends when the second recurrence begins. The second parts is the
updated rrule.
- Modify only this particular event.
- Modify all events: Forbidden (same as Google Calendar)
Note: when events are "moved" because the rrule changed, the events are not actually
moved. They are unlinked and new events are created (See "Some design choices explained"
section).
Some design choices explained
=============================
Where to store the rrule?
-------------------------
Two options were considered.
1) Store the rrule on an event, each event of the recurrence having a Many2one
to the parent_id, aka the Master Event of the recurrence.
2) Store the rrule on another model: `calendar.recurrence.rule`. Each event in the
recurrence having a Many2one to the recurrence record.
Both options have pros & cons. But there is no clear winner.
However the actual business logic of handling the recurrence creation/update
would be the same.
Where the rrule configuration is stored is the only main difference between both options.
And this is probably the easiest part of implementing recurring events.
With that in mind, option 2) is chosen. It allows to clearly separate recurrence
logic from the events themselves. It is also the "correct" way of modeling data to avoid
many empty columns for most records.
Reusing events on rrule update
------------------------------
When an rrule is modified, events should also be updated.
In most cases, current events are unlinked and new events are created from scratch.
Only events exactly at the same time before and after the rrule update are kept.
Trying to reuse other events would require an obscure and arbitrary heuristic.
(Imagine an rrule every Monday that is changed to every Tuesday and every Friday.
What would you do?).
This implies that any change to a specific event (name change, attendee added, chatter
messages) is lost. This tradeoff seems acceptable as updating an rrule should not be
that frequent. Moreover, Google Calendar also works that way so why not Odoo?
Reusing events on events shifts
-------------------------------
On the calendar view, drag and drop an event to shift the entire recurrence.
One way to handle the recurrence shift is to apply the same timedelta to all events.
Now events are correctly positioned... except for events that were specifically
moved. Those outliers needs special handling.
This also introduces some behavior inconsistencies:
when an rrule is directly modified, events are not reused, but when the rrule is
modified by drag & dropping an event, events are reused. This option needs more code to
handle the shift and the behaviors are not consistent.
The chosen option is to find the rrule configuration from the dragged event (this is
easy) and update the recurrence with those new rrule values. This brings us back to
an rrule update (see above): code reusability yeah; one behavior to rule them all yeah.
One downside is that outliers are lost (but Google Calendar also works that way).

Activate Google Synchronization, create on GC a recurrent event,
synchronize OE, then delete an event of the recursion on GC, sync again
on OE.
The event will be deleted from GC but not from OE after sync.
The exclusion on OE is not correctly working in that particular case,
fixing require also to "suppress" the attendee to avoid that just
created exclusions would be detected as changes to send in a following
synchronization.

Multi is the default api for methods, it is not necessary to explicitly
decorate methods with it, adds clutter and most people use it because
they see that the rest of the code uses it.
Done with `find . -type f -name '*.py' | xargs sed -i '/@api.multi/d'`
In Python 3:
* various builtins and dict methods were changed to return
view/iterable objects rather than lists
* and the separate Python 2 view/iterable builtins and methods were
removed altogether
This is problematic when using these items as list (which the happens
repeatedly in Odoo), but more viciously when iterating *multiple times*
over them (which also happens, which I've messed up multiple times while
writing this, and which is a pain to debug even when you've just created
the issue).
Convert all code using these to semantics-matching cross-version
helper functions to get the LCD behaviour between P2 and P3, and
forbid the builtins via lint.
