Kafka Input Node: Obtain/Propagate Kafka metadata timestamp value via MessageTree or LocalEnvironment

- Kafka meanwhile added a timestamp in the Kafka metadata

- This timestamp is currently not available in the MessageTree or LocalEnvironment in ACE when using Kafka Input Node

- Currently only partition, topicName, offset, checksum and key are propagated: https://www.ibm.com/docs/en/app-connect/12.0?topic=messages-using-local-environment-variables-kafka-nodes (Table 3)

Feature request is to add timestamp to it as well.

    Thank you for raising this topic. As discussed in slack, the timestamp metadata mentioned was not available to us at the time of initial implementation, but now that it is, we acknowledge that this would be a good enhancement for the node. We anticipate being in this area of the codebase soon. Status of the idea is updated to Future Consideration.
