To enable the calendar.usholiday file to grow in a clean way, I reckon
stage 1 is to relocate their existing entries into that existing file.

Stage 2 would be to do some grouping by state in calendar.usholiday.

Stage 3 would be open season for new American holiday/event additions.
Like the ~600 entry French festival file: calendar.fetes

After that, there's about 100 entries at the foot of calendar.holiday
I'd like to hoist up into date order, & follow up with further tidies.

Cheers.

Errr, not really;- only ~10% of calendar.holiday is affected (53 lines),
which about doubles the size of the skeleton calendar.usholiday file.

I think most OpenBSD hackers are on the European continent,
or at least outside of the U.S.A. anyway.

My thought was to provide a place for more regional U.S. holidays to be
added, to their file, without impacting the international scene.

Following this diff, I want to group many items by state, to make it
easier for their regional additions. Such as the New York Marathon,
Albuquerque hot air balloon festival & wotnot!

The Germans are already 4 times ahead of the combined States:
$ wc -l de_DE.UTF-8/* | fgrep total
 414 total

The Americans could totally top that.

I know lots of Brits love the States, so it would be easy for them to
then include a fully loaded calendar.usholiday file.

Cool.

hi craig.

i have to say i am less keen on this. i think calendar.holiday is pretty
much a us-centric file anyway, for fairly obvious reasons. i'm not sure
that splitting this file makes sense. we'll end up with a holiday file
with few entries, and which belong nowhere.

having said that, "oklahoma day in oklahoma" is kind of nuts. we could
probably still change entries like that (but not in a separate file).

Hi folks,

NOOP;- relocate USA state/national holidays from calendar.holiday
into existing sparse calendar.usholiday file.

As they're now in the USA holiday file, strip state names from holiday
names where the state is named in the day itself.

e.g: 'Oklahoma Day in Oklahoma' becomes 'Oklahoma Day'.
e.g: 'Youth Day in Oklahoma' remains unchanged.

Just for the record
