Steps to reproduce
  1. As user A, share a calendar Cal with B
  2. As B, create an event with invitees in Cal
  3. Delete the event in Cal

This is a follow-up to https://github.com/nextcloud/calendar/issues/2055.

Expected behaviour

Due to the reasons explained in https://github.com/nextcloud/server/pull/15676 no notification is sent to the invitees.

When the event is deleted also no notification should be sent to the invitees.

Actual behaviour

The invitees don't receive an invite, but they receive the cancellation of the invite.
