Link Deck with Nextcloud Calendar, Mail and Tasks #5594

Thanks for the very nice app. I realized by playing with Deck, Mail, and Tasks that the calendar created with Deck (when showing boards in calendar/tasks is selected) is not a calendar with a task list but just a regular calendar. If the Deck calendar was created as a calendar with a task list, it would be available on Mail when selecting "Create task" from an email. This would allow the creation of a card from the mail app, something that can't be done right now.

To me it seems like the calendar created from Deck is a calendar without events but with tasks (that is, a CalDav entity with tasks but not calendar nor journal).

I tested if the problem is that in the Mail app the only available calendars are only the ones with the calendar feature; I created a calendar with Davx5 from my phone with both task and journal features, but not calendar. The calendar correctly shows for bot "Add event" (which is a problem and it fails: https://github.com/nextcloud/mail/issues/9868) and "Add task" (but this fails too: https://github.com/nextcloud/mail/issues/9779).

This should mean that the problem lies in how Deck creates calendars; it seems that they are not visible to other apps: https://github.com/nextcloud/mail/issues/9869

It turned out that Deck calendars are read-only. Making them writeable would solve this.
