could the "join now" URL be in the LOCATION field in the iCalendar (ICS) export? #152

Description

@dbaron

I'm not sure how many people this would be helpful for, but...

Events in the W3C Calendar have a meeting URL field, often a URL starting with https://w3c.zoom.us/. In the HTML calendar this URL shows up as a "Join Now" button. In the ICS export linked at the bottom of the HTML calendar, this shows up as part of the event's DESCRIPTION. It would be helpful to me if this URL was also the LOCATION field of the event (since then I could copy the event directly to my work calendar and join it from a meeting room without further editing of the event other than inviting the meeting room to it).

(Right now the LOCATION field in the ICS seems somewhat inconsistent; this meeting shows no LOCATION but many meetings have just Zoom as a LOCATION.)
