Year view didn't have hints for days with events and this feature was
requested to be added to gnome-calendar.
This is an old request but in the past gnome-design team though it would
be better to keep the layout simple without hints for days with events.
Now with the changes in gnome-shell calendar and in order to keep them
in sync, this feature was added to gnome-calendar.
In order to implement this code we had to add a few css styles and a
code to add a small circle below everyday with events. Although
gnome-shell calendar uses an svg image with a 3x3 dot, we chose to use a
pango function to draw the dot.

Changed year view to use ISO 8601 standard to display the week #s
correctly when showing first and last weeks.
Year view was always starting week #s as 1, based on Jan 1st, and it
kept count the weeks until Dec 31st. But according to ISO 8601 standard,
that's not always true, i.e. Jan 1st 2016, is still in the 53th week of
2015, while Dec 31st 2014 is already in the 1st week of 2015.
Now the code is using ISO 8601 GDate function to get the correct week
number for the first and the last weeks of the year only. Other weeks
continue to use the same logic.
