Old version falsely updates events that have the same guests but are in a different order #90

Suppose I have the following two guests in my sheet:

max@gmail.com, maria@gmail.com

Each time I want to sync my sheet to my calendar, eventDifferences compares the guests received from the calendar event through simple string comparison. However the calendar event often times sends back the guests in a different ordering.

This means if the calendar event has the following list of guests:

[ 'maria@gmail.com', 'max@gmail.com' ]

and we join those to get maria@gmail.com,max@gmail.com, it doesn't equal to the original string in the cell even though it should.
