I just had the calendar pop up to almost the full width of my screen.
We should ellipsize calendar entries to a reasonable width.

Calendar: refactor the layout of the event list

In order to have event descriptions on multiple lines, but still
maintain proper alignment with the day and time strings, refactor
the whole event list to be one big table. Headers are implemented
as spanning cells, and uneven spacing is a mix of row/column spacing
and cell padding.

Ellipsization would have been easier indeed (just throw a max-width
to the whole popup), but wrapping looks nicer to me.
