Title:
  incorrect use of 'summary' event property in popup notifications

Status in indicator-datetime package in Ubuntu:
  In Progress

Bug description:
  As described in RFC 2445:

  > When the action is "DISPLAY", the alarm MUST also include a
  "DESCRIPTION" property, which contains the text to be displayed when
  the alarm is triggered.

  The ingest code in engine-eds.cpp is correctly reading the
  `description' property to initialize the Alarm struct's 'text' field,
  but then when it comes time to display the alarm, it uses
  Appointment.summary instead.

  This appears to be a code leftover from the time before indicator-
  datetime added multiple valarm support by separating the Alarm and
  Appointment structures.
