Sometimes it seems like parameters can be added multiple times with the same value. Besides not making any sense (and partially being not allowed in the first place) this will also possibly break the further process of parsing an icalendar file.
This modification adds a shortcut when the last parameter-value and the current parameter value are exactly the same. In that case the new value is ignored and only the old value will be used.
The use-case - as documented in the test - is that there seem to be icalendar files that contain the following content:
While that seems to violate the RFC it is not seen as a violation in the icalendar validator at https://icalendar.org/validator.html and as it can also be imported by other calendaring systems it looks like this should at least not break the parser.
