Description
Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
Lets say I book an appointment via the appointment feature and I confirm it. Now, I would like to be able to cancel it when something comes up. As I am not a user on the server, I cannot simply change my attendance.
The Calendar app would need to provide a cancel link in the booking confirmation email.
This also requires implementing a public route to delete/cancel the event in the calendar of the user which created the appointment schedule. Similar to the invitation response controller.
Describe the solution you'd like
Add a link to cancel a booked appointment to the booking confirmation email.

Determine how a public cancellation route can identify and cancel the booked event, then verify that confirmation emails include a working cancellation link and that the appointment is removed or cancelled as expected.
