Issue 152: The system should display recurring events

Reported by spinnerin, May 12, 2008
Currently I'm unable to usefully import the existing user group iCalendar
file, because it contains recurring events with an initial meeting time
sometime last year. Here's how I propose we handle these:

* On import, create event instances based on the recurrence schedule,
ending either at the specified end date, or one year from import.
* Flag all recurring events with text like this:
http://skitch.com/spinnerin/mjc3/pdxfunc-monthly-meeting-calagator-portland-s-tech-calendar
* Treat all event instances that have been edited since import as
confirmed. This will encourage groups to add meeting agendas or other
details. Groups that have no new details to add could just add a
"Confirmed." line to the bottom of the description.
* Create a page that allows users to manage the 'master record' for
recurring events, extending or shortening their expiration, or changing
location and other details for following events.

Sounds good.
Does this include the following functionality?
On the Show Event page for each instance of a recurring event:
1.  Some indication that this is a recurring event, and
2.  Links to both Edit This Instance and to Edit All Instances (which links to the
master record).
