Add ability to display full day event

[rdewolff]

As a user, I wish to see full day events on the top of my day in a dedicated space, to avoid filling too much space in the week view.

This is usually an allDay Boolean in the event object to decide if this event should be displayed differently.

Cf info https://github.com/wmcmahan/react-native-calendar-events#event-fields

What do you guys think about this addition?

I think this feature is broad enough for the library, it would be nice to implement it.
But it would take some time. Some considerations:

• The all-day events behave somewhat different from regular events:
  • cannot be dragged, at least not vertically (upcoming feature)
  • endHour cannot be edited by long-pressing (upcoming feature)
• The dedicated-space height should grow according to the amount of all-day events
• When scrolling horizontally, the dedicated-space height may change in different weeks --> should be smoothly animated (ideally)

Yeah this is an important feature for any calendar. Hope we can have this soon 👍

@pdpino any plans to pick this up in the near future?

[pdpino]

Yes sure, I will consider it in the upcoming features

[rdewolff]

Looking forward having this too!

I have a first version for this feature:

v0-2022-09-02_10.16.14.mp4

I will send a PR after block-events #220 though (to avoid merge conflicts)
