Time stamp plugin to support creating timestamp

Example

//initialize default timestamp functionality
var MyModel = patio.addModel("testTable", {
    plugins : [patio.plugins.TimeStampPlugin],

    static : {
        init : function(){
            this._super("arguments");
            this.timestamp();
        }
    }
});



//custom updated column
var MyModel = patio.addModel("testTable", {
    plugins : [patio.plugins.TimeStampPlugin],

    static : {
        init : function(){
            this._super("arguments");
            this.timestamp({updated : "myUpdatedColumn"});
        }
    }
});

//custom created column
var MyModel = patio.addModel("testTable", {
    plugins : [patio.plugins.TimeStampPlugin],

    static : {
        init : function(){
            this._super("arguments");
            this.timestamp({created : "customCreatedColumn"});
        }
    }
});

//set both custom columns
var MyModel = patio.addModel("testTable", {
    plugins : [patio.plugins.TimeStampPlugin],

    static : {
        init : function(){
            this._super("arguments");
            this.timestamp({created : "customCreatedColumn", updated : "myUpdatedColumn"});
        }
    }
});

//Set to update the updated column when row is created
var MyModel = patio.addModel("testTable", {
    plugins : [patio.plugins.TimeStampPlugin],

    static : {
        init : function(){
            this._super("arguments");
            this.timestamp({updateOnCreate : true});
        }
    }
});

//Set all three options
var MyModel = patio.addModel("testTable", {
    plugins : [patio.plugins.TimeStampPlugin],

    static : {
        init : function(){
            this._super("arguments");
            this.timestamp({created : "customCreatedColumn", updated : "myUpdatedColumn", updateOnCreate : true});
        }
    }
});
