under the 'recurrence' tab there is no option to have an event repeat at the end
of every month. this would be useful, as months vary in time and often bills and
other responsibilities must be taken care of before such time. (28/30/31)

Reproducible: Didn't try
Steps to Reproduce:
1. right click on any day in any view
2. select 'new event'
3. select 'recurrence'

A reasonable request that has been mentioned in several other reports.  I looked
for a duplicate, but surprisingly, this doesn't seem to have been enterred
anywhere else.  Confirming.

Attachment: Patch v1

The patch adds the monthly recurrence "Last day of the month". You can only select it from the recurrence dialog if the event is on the last day of a month (similar to the other possible recurrence rules).

Patch v1

+    var isLastDay = monthLength == window.calendarEvent.startDate.day;
Including parens around what is being assigned makes this much easier to read.  (I'll fix that before checkin.)

Thanks for the patch! r=jminta
