recurring event exceptions

See original GitHub issue

https://fullcalendar.io/docs/v4/recurring-events

Would love an ability to provide exceptions to the recurring event. In other words, My Event occurs weekly between Friday March 8th and Friday March 29th except for March 15th. Exceptions could be an array that lets us provide multiple dates.

{
daysOfWeek:  ['5'],
startTime: '12:00',
endTime: '13:00',
startRecur: '2019-03-08',
endRecur: '2019-03-30',
exceptions: ['2019-03-15']
}

Thanks @arshaw and @flamber. I didn’t notice that EXDATE was an option. Adding it to the object style notation would definitely be helpful. Here’s an example of using EXDATE rule as a string in case anyone needs an example.

DTSTART:20190312T010000\nEXDATE:20190323T010000\nEXDATE:20190322T010000\nRRULE:FREQ=WEEKLY;INTERVAL=1;BYDAY=MO,TU,WE,TH,FR,SA,SU;UNTIL=20190330

Recurring starts on 2019-03-12 1AM (MO-SU) until 2019-03-30 except 2019-03-22 and 2019-03-23
