bug related to ical

[Aaron Ecay]

The problem is in the ‘notmuch-show-insert-part-text/calendar’
function.  The call to ‘icalendar--convert-ical-to-diary’ does not
create a buffer visiting the temp file, so the call to ‘set-buffer’
fails.  The following patch fixes the problem.

The ical->diary conversion also doesn’t seem to work – the calendar
attachment shows up as an empty part – but I guess that’s a separate
issue (and not addressed by the patch).

I guess that part insertion handlers should be called inside a
‘condition-case’, so that an error inside of one can be recovered from,
and doesn’t entirely derail the insertion of the messages in the buffer.
(I actually made this patch because I was so annoyed that Olivier’s
buggy test attachment made it impossible for me to read Tomi’s reply.)
