Bug description:
Currently the 'calendar' policy group is reserved because giving
access to the EDS's DBus API allows applications to access all
calendars without user consent. If calendars are going to be made
generally available to untrusted appstore apps, EDS needs to be
modified to use trust-store, like location-service does. Integrating
with trust-store means that when an app tries to connect to the EDS
over DBus, EDS will contact trust-store, the trust-store will prompt
the user ("Foo wants to access your calendars. Is this ok? Yes|No"),
optionally cache the result and return the result to EDS. In this
manner the user is given a contextual prompt at the time of access by
the app. Using caching this decision can be remembered the next time.
If caching is used, there should be a method to change the decision in
settings.
Targeting to T-Series for now, since the trust-store is not in a
reusable form yet.
