Check if local store is empty. If, force slow sync.

	* calendar-conduit.c (pre_sync): Check if local store is
	empty. If, force slow sync.

	* GnomeCal.idl (GNOME): Added get_number_of_objects.

	* corba-cal.c (cal_repo_get_number_of_objects): implemented the
 	get_number_of_objects.

	* calendar-conduit-control-applet.c (setStateCfg): Fixed bug that
	caused the capplet to always set the sync action to Disable upon start.
