When importing an ical file containing an event with the same start and
end time, that event is converted to an all-day event.

E.g., consider the following Google calendar file, basic.ics:

BEGIN:VCALENDAR
PRODID:-//Google Inc//Google Calendar 70.9054//EN
VERSION:2.0
CALSCALE:GREGORIAN
METHOD:PUBLISH
X-WR-CALNAME:emacs-ical-import-test

STATUS:CONFIRMED
SUMMARY:event with same start/end time
TRANSP:OPAQUE
END:VEVENT
END:VCALENDAR

I import it using:

(icalendar-import-file "/tmp/basic.ics" "/tmp/basic.diary")

And in basic.diary see:

11/5/2018 event with same start/end time

Instead of:

11/5/2018 12:00-12:00

The source code (icalendar.el) mentions the following:

;;   Please note:
;; - Diary entries which have a start time but no end time are assumed to
;;   last for one hour when they are exported.

Still, then I would expect the diary entry to be:

11/5/2018 12:00-13:00

But is that the same as an all-day event?

Yes, that would be more logical...

This seems to all be very inconsistent.  I rarely use diary myself, but
what would users expect here?  Exporting the event with 12:00-12:00
would be consistent, at least.

This note is about export, i.e. diary to ical.

I'll have a look.

Fixed on branch master.

If the end date is missing from an ical event, the imported diary entry
will now correctly show date and time of the start date.

The result should now look like this:

   11/5/2018 20:00 event with same start/end time

(Actual time depends on timezone settings.)
