    libical: minor tweaks to the text and instructions.
    
    - Added a command explanation for the Java bindings parameter, but left
      commented until I can test it against JDK.
    - Also added a commented optional dependency on JDK.
    - Modified the test instructions to tell users to add
      -DLIBICAL_BUILD_TESTING
    - Added a description for the new libicalvcard library
