Add support for date-added and date-modified #130

@koppor

Description

@koppor

There seem to exist a bibtex tool producing following data:

Date-Added = {2015-04-29 11:46:47 +0000},
Date-Modified = {2015-04-29 11:48:44 +0000},

In JabRef, we have timestamp.

We should migrate to date-..., because date-... has more semantics.

@pautasso It seems, this is from you, isn't it? Which tool are you using? 😇

(extract from JabRef#995)

  date-added =    {2014-02-17 12:06:22 +0000},
  date-modified = {2015-06-02 20:04:28 +0000},

I currently don't know, which software writes these data fields. I think, however, that we should migrate from timestamp to date-* as the semantics of timestamp is not clear at first sight: Is it the timestamp of the last modification or the timestamp of the creation? Furthermore: Why is no time included? Furthermore: Why is no ISO date used?
