Description
Users using calendar application frontends only, want to see if there was a conflict within their applications by seeing both versions of the event.
vdirsyncer version 0.18.0a2.dev16+g81895c2.d20210520 only offers the conflict resolution options
null, a wins, b wins and ["command..].
An option take both would save both events (by using a difference uid for the second event), this way users can resolve their conflicts within their calendar applications and vdirsyncer can run non-interactively, periodically in the background.

Research direction
Start by tracing how vdirsyncer handles the existing conflict-resolution options and the resolution script mentioned in the issue. Add a non-interactive “take both” behavior that preserves both event versions with a different UID, then verify that synchronization can run periodically and that both events are visible to calendar frontends.
