Hello,
See below my first patch to Emacs. The copyright assignment has
already been done BTW.
Let me know what you think. Would you like me to add some tests?

Subject: [PATCH] Adding diary-offset, a diary-sexp offsetting another
diary-sexp.
A bit like diary-remind, as a diary-sexp rather than reminder, and
also support both positive and negative offsets.
This is useful when for example your organization has a committee
meeting two days after every monthly meeting which takes place on the
third Thursday, or if you would like to attend a virtual meeting
scheduled in a different timezone causing a difference in the date.

Each of the standard sexp diary entries takes an optional parameter
specifying the name of a face or a single-character string to use when
marking the entry in the calendar. Most generally, sexp diary entries
