A properties drawer needs to be the second element in the entry,
planning info being the first, or the first one if there is no planning
info.

If you remove "SCHEDULED:", you also remove planning info only to leave
a plain timestamp (in a paragraph, but that doesn't matter here). The
properties drawer is no longer correctly located in your entry: it
becomes a regular drawer named "PROPERTIES".

As a consequence, ox-icalendar can no longer recognize entry's ID and
creates a new one, correctly located this time, before next export:

Long story short: if you remove "SCHEDULED:", also move the timestamp
/after/ the drawer.
